Memories become unclear after so many years.
Photos fade leaving arcane shapes
Of people and places I could once relate
But the memories at hand have been misplaced
On a sun-washed diary page
On a sun-washed diary page
And what I recall is what I want to recollect
Half of which I am sure is correct.
All the rest is just how I remember it
And the left behind will be untold
Folded up to remain as the unknown.
And at the end of the day
It’s reality
Time to return a borrowed memory.
Diary pages flip faster in reverse
Looking back everything seemed so well rehearsed.
Her eyes were lit with the utmost care
as she read the monologue she’d prepared.
But it didn’t feel like me even then
watching myself through the TV screen when she left me
she took it all and left me in 2-d.
Why do I recall what I can never recollect?
Half of which I am sure is correct
All the rest is just how I remember it
And the left behind will be untold
Folded up to remain in the unknown
And at the end of the day
It’s reality
Time to return a borrowed memory
