The curse of memories
Memories
In the noisy crowd, amid the hustle and bustle, all of a sudden.
A face that looks familiar, a laugh that triggers a memory flash.
Unwanted and uninvited, wanted to be forgotten, tried to be erased.
Away, go, be gone, be forever forgotten, be never to have existed.
And yet here you are, from the past, but present as once had been.
Soon, thankfully though, you are replaced by another, different, thought.
Overtaken by the here and now, which places no value on the past.
