From a few days ago, Memories

This is actually from Monday or so. I have not posted it because I was busy and I didn't really know how to end it. any ways here it is, though I don't think it's quite finished yet. The picture is not mine, it is from Gin and is not allowed to be used without her expressed permission.

Memories


Memories of the past
are haunting and chilling
they can surface so fast
the feelings can be surprising

Common items of everyday
can suddenly become a trigger
to the thoughts of yesterday
and leave you feeling smaller or bigger

In these memories I have seen
that I have been many different things
some things good and some mean
some are a haunting and some a blessing

I've been the lost and abandoned
I've been the loved and the hated
I've been the uplifted and the saddened
I've been the hurried and the waited

I've been a son and a father
I've been alone and had a family
I've been a brother
even to those who are not brotherly

I've been honest and true
I've lied and cheated
I've been with the old and new
everyone I thought I needed

Before all this...
I was nothing
