The forgotten life is gone now,
The slate has been wiped clean,
There is no recollection left,
Of who I was or where I've been,
Haunted I stare at the mirror now,
Knowing that I remember but at the time,
I forgot all I once held dear to me,
All that I owned, all that was once mine,
The dying memory has faded now,
Shifting in the sands of sleep,
There is no nostalgia in my mind anymore,
No melancholy for me to keep,
The dark is crowding in now,
Thoughts are screaming in my mind,
As visions of a life I have not lived,
Are discarded with the feelings I find,
The other time is going now,
It's just slipping away from me,
Leaving me without idle regret,
Finally just setting me free,
My spirit is singing in joy today,
I will not question why or how,
The nagging memories of my past life have faded
