When Time Allows..

There are memories worth keeping; and other memories worthy of letting go…

Under my bed,

I saw this little shoebox.

Inside were memories–

-greeting cards, pictures, letters…

for a while myself was drowned

with recollections,

back to where I was

20 years ago…

Two decades past,

and this little box still kept

those kind words, all sorts of expression,

promises of long-kept friendships, affection,

love…

Last night, without much deliberation

I decided to condense them all

to ashes.

Finally, discharged.

You should never burn good memories. Memories remind us that not all was bad about people we met and left.

all events in my life were documented and kept safe in my mind..those unworthy to be kept , well, I don’t even want to recall…

but yes, people we met and left – they have reasons, i guess..

Thanks for dropping by Phil..
