dedicated to depression meds that make you forget


i’ve wondered how you remember

me. do you remember me?

i’m grasping at strings that hold clouds.

wisps slip through. am i too loud?

whisper. gentle sounds make me

 

prisoner to unsaid words. be

calm and you will remember.

water spills, no silence found.

i’ve wondered how i’ve made you see

 

me. no base beyond september

from which to mold and remember

what silence meant beyond no sound.

pieces i place don’t fit. they’re round.

i’ve wondered how you remember.
