Memories
Memories
By Rayn Kusa
Family, love, good, bad, lessons, hatred, and even joy come from one thing.
Memories are our link to the past.
Memories are our portal into the depths of why we feel this way.
Where will it all begin and where it all ends?
You hide and deny your past...why?
Are you so afraid of the truth you are willing to lie or worse, even die?
I see it in your eyes, the pain that brought you to the brink of death.
You can't hide it from me; I see more than you could ever understand.
Memories brought you here, so open your locked box and find yourself before it's too late.
Memories hold your happiness, strength, and even your fears.
Look inside and remember what was once forgotten, remember all those good times you had.
If you deny yourself this then you are denying yourself life.
Do not be afraid, come, take my paw and I will hold tightly through all this.
Memories are the encompassing orb that holds you within a prison that only you can unlock.
A chain that links you to your past, present, and future, without it you will be non-existent.
So remember all that you are and your desires will be fulfilled.
Remember the tears that were shed when he died?
Remember the tears that were shed when you finally escaped from your hellish life?
Remember when he broke your heart?
Remember when his paw held you up when you thought you were done for?
So here you are, at the threshold of your memories.
Find yourself and sort through the chaff, so you may be complete.
I must leave you here now, so that you must continue on your own.
Do not worry, I will always be with you here...in your heart.
Goodbye for now and don't forget to remember.
Remember what you are fighting for.
Remember what you are.
Remember who you are.
