Fading..

I remember when we were happy
I remember when we were sad,
I remember my wedding,
The birth of my little lad,

I don’t remember what I bought for dinner?
Did I leave the iron on?
Our son has a daughter?
Life’s moving on!

Am I being forgotten?
Or is it just me?
Where are my earrings?
Where was I supposed to be?

I remember long summers,
The time we bought a boat,
Going to Egypt,
The time on that plane he lost his coat!

Wait - who are you?
Has our conversation just begun?
You say you’re my daughter?
I only have a son!

Oh now stop crying,
I’m sure your just confused
Let me get some tea,
With this I’m quite amused,

But maybe I am forgetting?
No defiantly not,
Have I put the kettle on?
It should be hot.

Everyday gets more confusing,
I cant figure why?
All these strangers,
Wishing me goodbye.

But its not my time to go,
I’m perfectly well.
But that look in there eyes,
Even I can tell.
