Memories 
of 
Memory
Glittering 
at 
the 
top 
shelf 
of 
my 
gallery,
Oozing 
glamour 
entwined 
with 
a 
dose 
of 
mystery,
Breath 
taking 
and 
breath 
giving 
in 
tandem,
Captivating 
and 
healing 
a 
limping 
soul.

Memories 
of 
Memory
Carressing 
my 
mind 
with 
every 
heartbeat,
Floating 
on 
the 
surface 
of 
my 
tears,
Taking 
me 
through 
a 
fascinating 
journey 
of 
endless 
laughter 
and 
echoing 
melodies,
Fingers 
crossed 
in 
anticipation 
of 
the 
day 
these 
events 
will 
be 
replayed 
in 
reality 
outside 
my 
mental 
premises.

Memories 
of 
Memory
Painting 
a 
magnificent 
potrait 
on 
the 
canvas 
of 
my 
senses,
The 
mark 
so 
indelible 
like 
an 
illness 
unto 
death,
Like 
a 
scar 
left 
by 
death,
Like 
the 
sound 
of 
a 
guiter 
string 
strummed 
again 
and 
again,
Echoing 
into 
the 
depths 
of 
my 
belly.

Memories 
of 
Memory
A 
trustee 
to 
my 
soul
Walking 
with 
me 
through 
raw 
territories,
Untapped 
resources,
Tosting 
tempests,
Laughing 
when 
i 
laugh,
Crying 
when 
i 
do,
Keeping 
it 
a 
secret 
between 
my 
soul 
and 
you.
