Made of memories

Memories,

good, bad,
happy or sad,
recent, distant,
traumatic or soothing,

whether vivid
or nearly forgotten:

we are made of memories.

Our hopes and dreams,

aspirations, desperations,
persuasions, doubts,
smiles and frowns,

whether we persevere
or give up:

we are shaped by memories.

We are but skeletons of memories
walking to and fro
going about our day
accumulating more memories
along the way

Memories.
Whether we like them or not,
they make us.
