In time

Memories meander

Recollections conflict

Stories embellish

While tales are dismissed

Truths are diluted

Opinions distorted

Lies are denied

While dreams are aborted

Clarity fading

Direction mislead

Doubt is pervading

Through all that is said

In time all that was

Will plague us no more

But all that was not

Will, without warning

Breeze effortlessly through

The unbolted door
