Forgotten Songs

Forgotten Songs

Old fingers pressing down the keys,
remembering songs and histories,
time signature blurs into falling free,
I wrote strangled sonnets for you but who'll sing for me?

Thrash, struggling for a youthful line,
drowning in a pool of rushing time.
The fear of forgotten rhymes,
who'll light the shadows in my mind?

  1. I like very much. I often come across old notebooks that have "forgotten" songs in them. When I see them they are like old friends.
