Memory breathes
Memory dies
Memory goes
Memory flows
Memories are like the leaves blowing through the breeze
Memories are like a roller coaster or a giant hill.
They are either good or bad, maybe in between.
They can be loving
They can be sad
They can be heart wrenching
They can be challenging
Whatever memories we may have
They are still our memories
We keep in our heads...
Memory breathes
In
Constantly working
Out
Inhaling the new
In
Absorbing experience
Out
Exhaling the old
In
Unnecessary filler
Out
Haven’t used it lately
In
You don’t need it
Out
But if you want to keep it
In
You’ll have to hold your breath
Brain brimming with information
Overwhelming impenetrable mix
You must release the old to take in the new
Out
Sometimes it’s best to forget
In
Lest we liv...
Memory breathes,
Touches for the bereaves.
Past inhaled,
Happiness once regaled.
Photos reacquaint,
Bent to your would be saint.
Music realign,
Strings pulled back on your pain.
Glasses tinted,
Hurt all but stinted.
Love lost,
Heart numb at a cost.
Memory reigned,
Affection undermined.
Body numb,
Alone you succumb.
…
Love You R

Memory breathes
Some moments last forever whether it was good or bad
Some word still wander my head , even if they were years ago .I remember
I remember going with my aunt and buying toys and losing them in the car although she scolds us every time about it.
Certain memories replay over and over never stopping
I’m too tired to continue whatever this is...
Memory breathes
Automatically recording
The moments of life
We may forget
Or remember
Like a breath
Some are deeper
Or smaller
But still part
Of the bigger picture
Taking in the vision
Absorbing what may come with it
And consequently
Breathing out
Something it replaced
Smell the roses
Blow out the candle
Smell the emotions
Blow out the battle
We breathe, just as memory does
And stop,...
Memory breathes
And like a strand of hair
Tickling your cheek,
It’s breath tickles you
A strand of hair,
You can toss it back
But a memory, it stays
Glued to you
It’s breath
Nuzzling your chin
Like a scratchy knitted scarf
Tied way too tightly
It eventually turns
From an itchy sock
Into a tickle monster
It’s claws
Scratching
Scarring
Begging for freedom
It’s breath
Gasping for oxygen
For ...
Memory breathes, a phrase that stirs the soul,
In love's embrace, where memories take their toll.
Through darkest hours, when shadows cast their might,
Love's memory persists, forever shining bright.
In yonder days of youth, when hearts were pure,
Love's flame ignited, steadfast and secure.
A tender touch, a whispered vow so sweet,
Etched in memory's realm, where moments meet.
Though time may pa...
“In the end, we only regret the chances we didn’t take, the relationships we were afraid to have, and the decisions we waited too long to make.” -unknown(or something)
Memory breathes...
The blade unseathes...
Unspoken words bleed...
Sprouting again the weed...
Stars twinkle...
Come again the whistle...
The chance I didn't take was talking to you
I should've asked how you were
Now you're not her...
