Memories

Dustin Strong

Memories
Past
Present

Memories recreate
What was lost
To the sadness

Memories recreate
The ones
From before the despair

Memories bind me
To stay with those
Whom have hurt me

Memories protect me
From the encroaching
Of the enemy

Memories shroud me
From certainty
But also from fear
