Lethean Stream

Stephanie Alford
The fluid of forgetfulness
Travels down your throat
Rendering all of your thoughts devoid
Memory forever lost
Slipping into a new senility
Free to start life anew
Until you decide to sip once again
From the river of lost memories
The question you must ask yourself
Is it worth losing all the good memories forever
Just to forget a few bad ones?

I've returned from my little emotional sabbatical. Much better now.  View profile

    The bad memories like to creep in, but you can crowd them out with more good memories.

    Not forgetting the bad stuff sometimes help us appreciate the good stuff! I like this thought.
