Remember

I'm at the age where memory
Is nowhere near my strongest point
IF I'm asked about names and things
I'm most certain to disappoint!

As I get older, it gets worse
Passwords and pin numbers exhaust 
A few times I have found something
When I forgot, it had been lost!

My memory once was right on point
But now seriously in doubt
If it gets worse, I guess that I'll,
Wait, now what was I on about?

Yes I can relate - I too have "found" things that I didn't know were lost! Very catchy and clever!
