Memories
It's funny how even over a decade later
They can still brush up against you
Unexpedly, as if from something greater
It's a thing by chance, calm and true
And you hold it delicately for a while
You remember how together you grew
And savor the memories with a smile
But it's something you released long ago
And now, after all the pain has faded...
All that remains is the good, unaided.
