My Naked Memories

Is it that I adorn them
maybe I dress them up
scared of forgetting them
my naked memories
do I remember the true
and real occurance
or does my mind 
decorate them
attach the baubles
and trinkets 
of my desires
so that they are
as declectable as
the actual event
maybe I dress them up
scared of forgetting them
my naked memories

I really like this poem , its so very true of our human nature to decorate our memories just like a room in our homes .
