Ups & Downs.

3|

There's two sides in everything.

There are good memories that always overwhelm us and make us smile alone like idiots, sometimes those hurt the most. And on the other side, there are bad ones. Those that keep haunting you and putting you in a prison made of your own self, just you and your past's ghost trying to make you lose what is left of your mind. Reminding you that the people in it has left but their thoughts always remained. Showing you that it's the only thing that is holding you from moving on, it is holding you from giving yourself a second chance.

Life is a joke but
I'm not the one who is laughing.

I want to put those bad memories,
Those old scars in a locked bag
and never opened it again.
I want to be ready to say " I'm making memories with other people now ".

But sometimes memories sneak out and roll down my cheeks.

Perhaps I don't want to forget
but I really want to be okay with remembering.
My memories are deep strong,
they can't just easily vanish because I want them to,
they're stuck in my head,
and won't die until I die.

Can we push a button and rewind?

Can we go back in time?
to the simple life,
to the laughter and the happiness,
to the old times when we were young,
and in love.
when we had nothing to worry about.

but the sad ugly truth is people always leave and memories always stay.
