Once

I knew a poem
	Once.
Sweet and melancholy
It brought sadness to me
	Once
Now my memory fades
Now no longer do I remember
This poem has gone
My darkest thoughts invade

Once
	It sounded like the birds 
How they sing in the tree above
Once
	It sounded such like the wind
Powerful and long and low and intangible
Once
	I knew this poem
		Once.
