How powerful, memories are.

Memory dissolves the walls
around you, so strongly built
sturdy and firm but when
memory hits, it's like
the walls were never there
in the first place

and you are back where
and when

at a time where your present
has shielded you, has
protected you, has
forgotten, regressed you
from

and that's when you feel
every ripple on your
skin like tiny waves
of pricking happening
all at the same time

and it shakes you
shakes you from the present
away from here

back there
there where you felt flying
and the present where you crashed.
