The Burden of Memory

Write a poem that could have this as its title.

burden of memory

the burden of memory

the things that you said to me

i do not forgive and i cannot forget

for 14 years i have been so confused

sometimes i wonder if it pains you, too

i know it does not

i know you forgot

and you’ve lived your life

divorced your wife

14 years old when you got together

you were 18, should have known better

i hope that she’s well

i hope you go to hell

fuck you, farewell
