Forgot to Remember

susceptible sly salubrious speculations

imagine if you forgot to breathe

on your very next breath

imagine if you had real control

of now of life of then of death

imagine if just for a second

that you could step away from your soul

what would come to your mind in this instance

how would you explain your role

imagine if only for a slender moment

that you are completely and truly free

free of the many mental shackles

shackles you can't feel or see

imagine inside the angst and anxiety

get in deep rip it apart and inside out

curl your hands into defiant fists

lift them and rant and scream and shout

imagine if you forgot to remember

what would you want to win or lose

another visceral gut feeling to explain

another beautiful excuse to use

imagine and i ask just a moment

i have need of someone to explain

what would you give and how would you live

if you were able to start again
