Memories

aaah after a long time another poem... well this is a poem about how memories don't make up life but how life makes memories.

Memories of our loved ones

Memories of the lost suns 

Memories of the bitter nights

Memories of the merry sights

Memories of timeless ties 

Memories of lucid lies

Memories that subsidize strength 

Memories that seize nor lend

Memories that make us strive 

Memories that become a part of life

Memories that give us weakness

Memories that take away heatedness

All these memories are but for naught

Do you remember what all you were taught?

Memories never made up life

Memories were only part of all that dies

Author's Note

Heatedness refers to anger although its not a word and criticisms are welcome :) thank you

Yes, it is so important to live in the present. Let memories teach you; not enslave. Great write.

yes that is very true. Our memories should only be teachers and reminders of what should be and what should not but people sometimes start worrying about their past so much they forget to live in the present and thank you! :) your review is appreciated!
