The Things I've Seen Today

don't have a name

some memories

a word cannot explain

they last too long

or they fade too fast

beginnings change

and endings wane

they lack effect

and cause

at times they seem so poor

all they give is pause

I'd seen before

likely in that way

they'll be back once more

some sunny days

the scene unfolds a trace

in this game where the player has no face

he plays a hand that lost

just to understand at any cost

don't have a name

some memories a word cannot explain

but when I finally land

across that line

please remember me as one who tried her mind

every time.
