The Burden of Memory

Write a poem that could have this as its title.

The Burden Of A Memory

We make memories as a way to cherish special moments.

No matter how big or small.

Most of the time wanting to be stuck in it forever.

It’s crazy how fast time passes to become a memory.

What once was a happy moment can be dipped in sadness, regret and yearning in an instance.

Sad it’s the last one of someone special.

Regretting how we can make it better.

Yearning to make more.

But that’s just not how life works is it?

All we can do is feel grateful that we have memories of people we held so dear.

Now replaying memories over and over just to be with them again.

Just to be with them a little longer.

Until we meet again.
