Memories are a gift

With them remember

All the things from the past

That was expected to be lost

Memories raise the dead

Bringing back loved ones

People who we’ve lost

And miss so dearly

However, memories suck

They remind us of people

Ones that we’ve lost

And our hearts crumble again

They show us our past

And make clear our failures

Teaching how far we never came

And how our mistakes brought us down

Memories bring the tears

That were never meant to fall

And they mock us

Teasing us with insults

Memories do suck

With them remember

All the things from the past

That was expected to be lost
