Memories

Are memories written in stone?
Like ancient writings found in caves.

Do the past stay the same?
like old pictures in a frame.

Then why do the past hurt,
When the photos say “Happy”.

Then why do I want to forget,
all the writing; and words we said….

Happy memories are like finger art,
drawn on sand by the seaside.

One big wave of pain and it changes,
and all get washed away.

Hurtful ones are like pimples,
that never just seem to go away.

The good ones..,
The bad ones…,
I’ll cherish all tonight.
And like a child turning 3 tomorrow,
I’ll forget it all at sunrise.
