I Forget

Sometimes I forget.
I forget my stutter
and attempt to talk fast.
I forget I'm single
and imagine my children all grown up.
I forget to wake up
and my dreams remain dreams.
I forget to spread my wings,
but attempt to fly.
Then I fall down, 
heroically pick myself up,
But I forget again,
I forget again.

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.
