Was That It?

 


 

Was That It?

 

 

and then the goalposts were shifted,

it was

as if we never existed.

 

easy to remember,

sometimes easier to forget.

 

and when no one can see me

and the world passes by me

when the lights shine right through me

I wonder

who will remember who knew me?
