OBLIVION

To the best of my recollection

but only when I can remember

what I had once forgotten

I reminisce that you once

were fun and games.

Are my memories just

little fleeting glances

of something that was stamped

in my mind but never really happened?

Did you ever dance the night away

with me then take me to your bed

impulsively in wild abandon and lust

pounding relentlessly into my flesh

again and again until I could take

no more or am I mistaken?

This figment of my imagination

is taking me away from you

as I fade into oblivion

and so do you.
