Faded photograph.

tetrameter sonnet.

Faded photograph.

 

A snapshot taken years ago.

Somewhat lacking clarity.

Of some young guys I used to know

In fact the skinny one is me.

The other two I can recall,

their faces well but not their names

Although I try nothing at all.

My memory is playing games

I wonder where they are today

 I wonder if they remember me

The passing years erode away

your memories ability.

To regain any access to

some things you know that you once knew

Keen observation of an oft overlooked event... we don't forget what we remember but - if we forgot how would we know?
