Memories

I wonder why time can erase memories, feelings

My memory is not my strong point

However, even if I forget,

It is good to know that things that happened before will and has shaped me

Things, no matter if we remember or forget, will always be part of who we are

Shaping and molding

Perhaps we as humans, mortals, do not remember as it will overwhelm us

But that is what makes it so beautiful and precious is it not?

The memories, knowing that things end?

The uncertainty, not know for sure when or if?

Or maybe forgetting is god’s way of making sure?

Making sure we don’t get too arrogant? Too prideful?

So that we may learn the lessons we came to learn...

Great poem! Just one little nip- god's way could have a capital G for emphasis on whom your refereeing to. Other than that I love this poem, it very well written.

This seems quite different from other pieces I have read of yours. The tone is lighter, yet very mature and profound. You are conveying a message and you do it really well.
There is something about the flow that had me stopping and starting in a few places, but quite frankly this is one of my favourites of yours so far, so who cares about the flow? You did a really great job!

Nice. Some lessons come hard. Are learned the heard way.
