Forgetting To Remember
Have you ever known?
An after you did not see
Even if all were shown
To only know it cannot be
When people say they understand
I find it harder to believe
Cause I know they can only comprehend
To an extent of what they achieve
And what did I know anyway
To be grasping the nature of things
Those words I do not say
I wonder... I can only assume it’s means
I do not remember the start... do you?
I have forgotten when I started remembering
I do not remember how it feels
A semblance perhaps... serving in mild rendering
Did you know... have you known?
Before it happens... do you see?
Is it all shown?
To only know it can ever be
