Remind Me
I wedge the door upon the night
and pray someone will see a light
to value my tenacity
Remind me who I used to be
While winds, confused, pretend to know,
with zephyr breath, they exhale rows,
of winds to scatter clouds from me
Remind me who I used to be
A photograph within my heart
has faded, pale, and tossed apart
Have I been lost upon the breeze?
Remind me who I used to be
That I might sleep, and never know
if who I am, still matters too
Not who I was, that once was me
Remind me who I used to be
