The Fading Away of Someplace Else

It wasn't here
It was someplace else
Someplace I may never get to go again

A place that was once sharp and vivid
Receding from my mind
A place that I could taste and feel
Is now a bitter sensation

I could not help but go there
In so many ways
But now the langoliers of memory
Are chomping it away

Away
Away it goes
Was it ever there

A pond
It's name escapes me
A village
I no longer know

I know
There was someplace else
But where
Is beginning to fade
