Time Wash

Memories can feel like bodily extensions 
Memories can haunt the very oxygen I breath
Memories carried around like a boat anchor
Memories that felt heavier than the present
Memories that gripped my slumber’s steering wheel

Memories that miraculously became ossified
Memories which mysteriously sunk into the ocean
Memories when grown transfer into learnings 
Memories buried in the wavering wash of time
Memories buried with time’s ceremony
