Memories

Memories cross my mind as they try to escape, I try to control which ones stay or go this method never seems to work but I keep trying anyways. I try to file my memories Into discrete sections ones to keep, ones not to Remember like when water separates from the dirt the sediment falls to the bottom slowly making its way deeper Into The earth, You can’t see it but It’s still there you want to only remember the Ones that are good, but they always seem to slip away the memories are always there even though I want to forget I try to counter this by choosing which ones get buried, To try to Forget dull down or sugar coat The ones that seem To linger, like a sundial that has became obsolete my memories too I want to make obsolete so they don’t come back when something reminds me of another thing then branches off to another memory I want to keep the good, forget the others but somehow it always happens those good ones, the ones I want To keep cross my mind as they try to escape when I try to control which ones stay or go the method never works. I remember the ones I want to forget, I forget the ones I want to keep.
