Thoughts and Memories

Thoughts, memories. Those that have been and will be.
small moments of life's loves, joys, heartaches and heartbreaks.
Simplified moments in the grand scheme of greater events.

Memories and thoughts. Filed away in the mind. To be reborn
over and over again as we contemplate their passage into time.
Slowly slipping away into the solitude of the forgetfulness of youth.

Thoughts and memories. Regurgitated in the waning light
of age. Tidbits of actual events. Slowly turning on the
wheels of consciousnesses. Never solidifying into the whole
of what they actually were.

Memories and thoughts. Slipping in and out of our
fevered mind, as we try to recapture the why and how.
Was it then or now? Does it really matter anyhow?

Thoughts and memories. Leaving us puzzled and confused.
The mind playing tricks on our "what could have been. Or what
really was." No, it doesn't really matter, For we are slipping
into eternal sleep and our thoughts and memories quickly
fade away.
