Not Forgotten

You buried it so deep
So safe in hidden sleep
But like a tell-tale corpse
Rises to the surface
Over-ripe and bloated
In naked time-lapsed truth
Thought it was lost forever
Remember this

How long has it been?
Or have you forgotten?
When you first forgot?
Now resurrection the phoenix
Aflame with pride and conceit
Remembers this

Wind blown leaves outside
Applauding like the ocean
To the cacophony inside
The waves come rushing in
A crashing whispering
Drowning they drink me

Ah not forgotten
Ah not forgotten
This is not forgotten
Do you forget how to sleep?
Do you forget how to forget?
I'm not not forgotten
I'm not not forgotten
Ah not forgotten
