“A Memory to Remember”

Where do your lost memories go?

Are they lost in a sea of scenarios?
Or, do they grow like embryos?
Will that memory be forgotten,
Or will it travel to the top of your head?
Then, will it stick like a seed of cotton?

Will you remember what you said?
Or, will a loved one remind you?
Then, will brilliant memories make flashbacks?
Do these feelings seem true?
Or, will they leave you dead in your tracks?

A found memory can change your future.
A lost memory can affect who you could be.
A happy memory can affect who you are.

Memories can get you far.
We live in a world of wonder,
Which we can explore with our minds.
There’s an endless sea,
A memory to remember!
