Memories

in #poetry7 years ago (edited)

From what I thought would instill confidence and effortless dedication, came with a deadly additive...
Naked to the human eye but always present, always lurking, they find you. They attack at times of happiness, sadness, joy, excitement. Almost any emotion can trigger these monsters. They can tear you down, from inside out. Without a second to think rationally you are instantly trapped, captivated with intense speculation of times and moments past. You begin to wander and wonder about every single different pathway that could of, would have, should have been taken, and where that could leave you in the future and how it could of changed you... for your past defines you, your future creates you. There is no escaping the now, for the now is the past, present, and future, slowly drifting past our eyes, endlessley being replayed and anticipated, and almost always, un-appreciated.

Im completely in love with your post. Its amazing.
Memories although can be good or bad. That is why its good to foster good relationships with people as we grow so that their memories of us would be pleasant .

Thank you so much for the feedback! This was something I wrote some monthes after a very toxic relationship, at a time when the thoughts wouldn't leave me alone. I have grown allot since then, and only seek relationships with people that will bring out the good in me.
