A new place

Before tomorrow,

after yesterday,

but not now.

Not now and not yet.

I used to remember,

releasing memories,

of what was.

Not now,

but at one time.

I kept it,

held it for so long.

Gripped it

with care, with love.

But I forgot

what I wanted

when it was easier.

Not now,

but at one time.

To wake up

in a new place,

not better, but 

just different.

I can't remember

what was

or who I was.

Not now,

but at one time.
