enigma

again the wrong
comes out my mouth

again the song
ends

again the time
cuts short the reverie

again the remark
stops the good memory

can nothing stay
in colour

must it all be black and
white

always fight
with myself
or fight
against help

i dream
but don't remember

what i savor
is what's left behind

(mind)

  1. i dream / but don't remember - inexplicably, I have been conjuring the possibilities of: don't/can't/won't

    don't is the most obscured; the reason of why unlimited
    can't indicates the inability, tho no why defined
    won't is the indication that the will is in active engagement- or do I mean disengagement?

    You may file these under "contraction conundrums"
    (unsurprised by the selection of the obscured)
