You wondered at the room
Like you never been there before
As you began to sit down and stare
I can see the confusion
But you lived here less than two decades
I recognise you are close to the end
If you go, promise me this
Don't let go of the memories we shared
I'll promise I will have yr name
Tattooed to my soul forever
......
I used to have a good memory,
but I’ve forgotten where it’s gone.
And some people get so ornery
when I forget and things go wrong.
Getting older is full of problems
and the aging process is unkind.
I lost my marbles and other items
when life moved on and left me behind.
