MEMORY AND DESIRE

A poetic creation out of lockdown musings.

With the passage of Time
Things start to appear in defferent
Shades and Shadows.
Yet There remains
Some Things and A few People
With the same
Echo And Essence!

Memory is not only
What happened to us
It is also
What ought to have happened.

A man
Forgets
Nothing
Ever.
Our Desires
Move both ways
Mostly Towards our Past.
And Life
Is a Battleground
Memory Versus Desire.

My life shuttles between
Memory And Desire
One is Wounded
Other Bruised.

[Julie McCarthy (juliesp..]

this is fantastic
I love anything to do with memory and dreams etc.
I believe also in dejavu, maybe of a dream of a past life or a memory that suddenly comes giving us dejavu of a past life or event. even a future event.
thanks for this beautiful poem
