Rotting With Time
I cannot remember
The lips that I've kissed, why, when, and how.
I can't still recall
The number of hearts I've broken and the way they bled.
I cannot remember
The days I've lived, why, where and how.
I can't really imagine
The essence of my existence and when I will die.
I cannot remember
The chances that I have missed, why, when and how.
I can't reminisce
Why I tried to see when there was nothing in sight.
I can remember
The pains, betrayals, stabs and the wounds on my sensibilities.
They're easy to correlate
And I know I'm in prison because I loved and trusted with my soul.
