Revising

Our memories contain

Events, Images, Times past

That, at any moment,

we can all upon

We can seat ourselves in the situation

Immediately sending our minds back

to that moment

Where we can feel those emotions

All over again

We hold onto these pictures

because we aren't done with them yet

We're still searching

for something,

a small understanding  

of whys and hows

that wasn't gained the first time.

But over-rehearsing the lines,

Will it help? Ever?

Or does the entire scene get re-done fictitiously

Over and abundantly?

We are stuck in a mode

of discontent

with ourselves

With what has been going on in my life lately, I can relate completely. Memories are revisited over and over again, and sometimes, the replay gets messed up. Thanks for the great poem! Love it. Added to my favorites.
