My brain is perplexed

tied up in knots

pondering the question

without an answer.

Will I remember

five years from now

what I did yesterday?

or the day before that?

or three or four days ago

I barely remember today

can’t forecast tomorrow

how will I remember

what happened

five years ago?

This question has no answer

And the answer has no question

I’ll live life for today

enjoy every drop

throw yesterday in a sack

open the bag tomorrow

or just throw it in the trash

where yesterday’s sorrows belong

tomorrow will take care of itself.

Have you ever thought about what would happen if you sat at the bottom of a swimming pool for an unusually, long amount of time? I mean, you'd obviously drown, unless you had a face mask on, but what I want to know is, would anyone go looking for you? If you died, would anyone cry for you? Or would life just continue as if it never happened. I'm very interested in knowing.
