I don't mind being forgotten. In fact I've grown so used to it I do it myself. I no longer remember the touch of any past lover. And I'm happy with that. I'm glad that I was finally able to shut that door to my past.
But today I walked in my room and on an impulse I guess. I walked over to the little nightstand beside my bed. I opened that top drawer and pushed the clutter out of the way. And carefully I took out the little orange and white origami flower ball that was so carefully made just for me all those years ago. And I smile. And I put it back. That's enough memories for one day.
