Fade

Take the memories from my mind
Those days are over
There’s no going back
What use is it to think about
What could’ve been
What should’ve been
And what those moments meant to me
When in retrospect
That meaning was artificial
Added by an addled brain
That clearly couldn’t see
The differences of experiences
Between you and I
Let them fade
Like the day fades into darkness
Everything has an opposite
Each passing minute ends
Entropy is the only true fact of life
And what good is an unreliable narrator
A point of view reflecting
Scattered slices of what happened
Skewed by the emotions of the time
There’s nothing there left to find
By looking back
