FORGETFULNESS
FORGETFULNESS
Sitting quietly
Musing over tea.
What was the name of that girl at school?
The one you dreaded?
Who pierced your innards
With jibes of spite?
Giggling cronies
Dancing attendance.
How long ago was that?
How many decades?
Where is she now?
Is she even alive?
But you’re still here
You survived.
In your heart of hearts
You always knew
She just spouted drivel!
How could she possibly
Know what was in you?
Who made her an expert?
What a waste of space!
Not worth remembering
Move on in life
Throw out the rubbish!
