Some days I felt I was drowning. The memories covered me like waves and I felt like I was surrounded by a sea of things I had forgotten. They lay in driftwood pieces, close enough to feel their presence but floating further each time I tried to understand them. Never steady enough to keep me above water Always hinting at the boat they came from.

Forgetting
Some days I felt I was drowning. The memories covered me like waves and I felt like I was surrounded by a sea of things I had forgotten. They lay in driftwood pieces, close enough to feel their presence but floating further each time I tried to understand them. Never steady enough to keep me above water Always hinting at the boat they came from.
