Illusions

Illusions Keelinn Laskaris I do not belong to you. You do not belong to me. We don’t belong to each other. We coexist. We live side by side. But, What if I told you— Your possessions don’t belong to you. Your memories don’t either. Your life is yours to have but not to keep. We belong the earth; To the world that created us. To where we will return— Without each other... Without a memory...

You have written this poem really beautifully, yeah you re right, people went away and only memories are left sometime those memories are so better than our present life that we doubt that whether it was true or just an illusion, whether all that actually happens or was it a dream, but it s all is real, the love is real, the person is real

Keelinn, guess we're all corpses our souls carry around for a short time.
