The Long Lost Thing

It is so exhausting
Searching for a lost thing
Even when it's lost in trash
It's hard to remember what's past is past

What's past is past for a reason
Especially when someone favoured treason
Took the side against which he should have protected
And for a bad thing a good thing neglected

But time brings doubt into your mind
The spool of solitude starts to unwind
And if you gaze along that line of string
You'll find you're looking at that long lost thing
