Reminder Reminder Reminder
remind me, remind me why i'm doing all these
remind me, remind me why things are the way they are
the first taste of amnesia came last year
when the film in my head
jammed
refused
failed
to respond to my summons of recollection
the second came this year
when evidence of photographs
reminded me of your presence
this time it stung even more
cos i had believed it wouldn't happen
again
it did
remind me please
cos i forget
yes i forgot
remind me why.
