The Burden of Memory
Write a poem that could have this as its title.
Burden of a Memory
I remember the warmth
of your breath on my face
in the prickly cold
How you used to hold me
as tears streamed down my cheeks
you saying how it’ll be alright,
when it felt like anything but.
The burden of a memory,
is heavier than all else in this world
Even when you try to drown it out,
those once lovely times,
have turned into a monster
that refuses to let you free of its claws.
