memories

“i am made of memories”
i am a collection of people who i have met
i am the final symphony of the people i adore
i am not an original, at least not to them
i am a film that has been re-done 20 times
i am the shakespeare play you’ve heard a million times
i am created in your image
i am who you want me to be
and you will never listen to my own symphony,
my own book
my own film
my favorite shakespeare play
you will never see past the ruse of my memories
