Amnesia..

a cute little creature

always smiling and true

showing me our picture

that she drew

immature and quaint

the way she paint

colours all over

a big mess moreover

i sat at home

all day all night

like a mom

always in her sight

i could never sleep

nor even weep

she could see me tired

but i tried not to be weird

her memory was fading

and i could see her dying

knew love was her only medicine

that would bring her back to living

oh dear! you are so sweet!

turned into diabetic meat

when i rubbed her arm

before the insulin shot harm

she made a gaze

like it was first time

with the insulin grace

she soured out that sugar prime

just as i left the room block

she turned the hands of the clock

and it was ten ‘o’ clock all again

in our time train

i told her it’s time for injection

like the poor goat

showed her arms with no objection

and trusting me without a doubt

five times she made the clock

and all times, insulin went in without a block

she thought i was acting

expecting my backing

tried to clue me out

before falling into coma

overdosed and pale

losing her persona

i killed her and i never knew

in my warm hands, she died cold

doctor told me about my memory

just to forget after a while

between my blackouts

i knew she was caring me

doing things that i thought

i did for her

now, am on my search for him

who took her away from me

ending up with people

who i put my charges on

i take my revenge

and with a memory that’s too short

and not even true

my search for him never end

and not to know that

am running away from hunting myself

swapping myself with anyone i see

amnesia has taken me

my life was a lie

and i don’t know why ?

The prose is loosely based on a 2000 movie ‘Memento‘ by Christopher Nolan.
