Memory
October 18, 2017
Last night I dreamed of you.
It was peaceful.
It was calm.
Last night I dreamed of you, but I woke up all alone.
Last night I dreamed of you.
With vibrancy in my lungs.
We were shining like stars, but it didn’t last too long.
Last night I dreamed of you, now I’m duller than before.
Last night I dreamed of you.
The memory of pain all gone.
A smile, my reminder to stay strong.
Last night I dreamed of you, but then I remembered:
he’s not you anymore.

This piece was inspired by a friend who recently went through her first heartbreak. She was struggling to cope with the pain she felt so I asked her to describe it to me in a way that I could turn into a beautiful piece. Here you have, Memory.
