Quatrain of Always Fading

Not what it was

The life behind is always fading,
it's never the same when
thoughts reach
back for a
view.

As long as the past keeps
changing, the results keep
turning into all that is
false, nothing is
true.

The written word can hold it fast
only for a time or two,
changes are always
made for the
present,

If you wish to know the history
of your life, forget what you
remember; remember
what was
meant.
