Memories

Memories are a funny thing

They can make you laugh but also cry

They are the basis of reliving the past

And for some, staying there

 

They hold secrets encapsulated in time

They hold feelings hidden from the world

A special place that one can visit as they wish

To hear voices and see smiles

To feel joy and love of those past

 

Memories, they hold the power to propel you or detain you

They can uplift you, or drag you down

Memories, the power they hold, is the power you give them

So I say, embrace them, learn from them,

But ultimately keep only those that will ENRICH YOUR LIFE.

Words with sense and a moral lesson. Memories can enrich but also
enslave. They can bring happiness but they can also bring shame
and guilt. To be able to keep the balance is the secret to living this
life - in the knowledge that no one and nothing is ever perfect and
that we should learn and benefit from the lessons we are taught along the way.
