Captive

I've given much thought about all these memories

I feel they sometimes don't even belong to me at all

It almost feels as if they belong to another person in another universe

I look at old photos and I can't recall when they took place

I even look at the people in the photos and I can't recall them either

I try to remember certain things and I just can't

I almost feel like a captive in someone else's world

Chained to the confines of confusion and uncertainty

I drive by the old places I use to live and I just don't remember

I look at my children and they tell me I'm their mother but I just don't know them

But there is one person I could never forget

This photo of us hangs on my wall

On our wedding day back when we were young

They say I lost him ten years ago

And I just don't remember that at all

All I know is that we live in that photo on my wall

And in that photo we will forever be...
