Lost in the mist, faded dreams
Of times long past
Another life, another me
Someone I’ve forgotten, barely
A memory

Like so many scatter leaves
A time lay in my brain
Dead now, just scattered illusions
Of another time

Places once alive, now gone
Shadows once people
Long since passed
Faded pictures… lost long ago


Almost forgotten these moments
These times…
Years, brutal remnants harsh in their
Execution
Relentlessly beating, the rhythm of the
Seconds
Until we are not once more, but
Dust…swirling … then
Gone

An Original Poem by H.R. Beebe
