Remember Me? Poem by Phil Soar

'Remember me? ', she said
I looked puzzled, and hoped she didn't see
That something troubled me

'Lovely to see you', I Replied
While my memory accessed the hard drive that was my brain
I could hear it whirring and hoped she couldn't
Hear it
Whirring

After I re-booted, I tried again
And as if a mouse was running through my head
I noticed that my hard drive had been wiped

So,
No I didn't remember her..

We managed to talk until she suggested I didn't
Remember her,

I had to admit that she was a mystery to me
And then it hit me
The truck
We had been standing on a street corner
I won't remember her now

EVER
