Memories

Some of us want to hold on,
Well others want to let go…
A hopeless battle
Filled with uncertainty,
With no definitive strategy…
For there is never a victor.

Holding on isn’t
The best of choice.
But does letting go
Really help?

What if we let go
Of the ones we were
Suppose to keep?
The ones that we are
Suppose to remember?

The ones that cause
Pain and torment…
Disturbances…
Or even the ones,
That make us smile
And laugh…

What if letting go…
Does more harm than good?

As though,
Relieving ourselves
Of certain ones
Bring us peace…
But what if our refusal
Of them
Is the very thing
Causing the chaos…
