im terrified of forgetting
i keep memento after memento after memento i hold on tight because if i don't hold a physical reminder i won't remember
i won't remember
i won't remember
i won't remember
I NEVER REMEMBER I NEVER REMEMBER IT ALL FADES AND I WANT TO HOLD ONTO IT WITH CLAWS SO THICK THEY COULD SERVE AS PRISON BARS
if i keep it all safe I'll never forget. I'll never need to remember. if i lock it all up tight if i pull it all under my wing it won't vanish like everything and everyone ever does
all the good people the good memories all the bad experiences and the pains it's all the same in the end
banished to the void of forgetfulness
of simple mindedness
of single minded determination to grab hold of the happiness everyone tells me i deserve
ill take swing after swing after swing and grab hold of everything I've lost and keep it safe
memento after memento after memory
what remains?
what's here.
all i have is clouds, my head so far in the sky
