why do some memories make you stop,
make your mind go blank,
make everything go away,
make your heart want to pop?
why do some memories completely cripple you,
completely distract you from all,
completely take all resistance away,
completely make you melt into the floor too?
why are those memories the ones you wish you’d forget,
the ones you hope to always remember,
the ones you dream about all the time,
the ones you–despite everything–never regret?
