Memoriae Fragmentatae from Requiem Aeternam by 9fingers

In the penumbra of a splintered mind,
Recollections, jagged and misaligned,
A faculty's sanity, battered and suborned,
A tapestry of self, tattered and scorned.

Phantasmal figures dance on neuron's edge,
Silhouettes of a life I cannot dredge,
In the fog of forgotten yesterdays,
I reach for remnants that forever frays.

Sepia-toned snapshots, blurred and bent,
Emotions surge taut, raw and unspent,
In the cacophony of my stormy pleas,
I seek the melody of lost memories.

Schrödinger's memories, both here and gone,
In superposition 'til observed upon,
Collapsing waveforms of who I might be,
In the quantum foam of identity.

Phantasmal figures dance on neuron's edge,
Silhouettes of a life I cannot dredge,
In the fog of forgotten yesterdays,
I reach for remnants that forever frays.

On vellum skin, a palimpsest unfolds,
Overwritten tales that time withholds,
Pentimento layers peek through the years,
Revealing the ghosts of unremembered tears.

In entropy's unyielding, cold embrace,
Memories dissolve without a trace,
Yet in dissolution, a truth emerges clear,
Identity persists, though past disappears.

Ethereal shadows waltz on neuron's brink,
Silhouettes of a life I cannot think,
In the mist of forgotten yesterdays,
I reach for remnants that slip away.

In the stillness of a fraught dawn,
Melancholy screams of what's gone,
A soul adrift in the sea of time,
Searching for a harmony, free of rhyme.
