Unforgettable Experiences
I would have left you eventually
Perhaps it was a good thing that you left before, instead
Thus ensuring that I’d remember you
With loathing, if nothing else
And that means you needed
To be someone or something to me
A memory at the very least, even if a horrible one
That I’d erase in a breath, if I could
Unforgettable experiences are all we’re all after
Having them and being them
Happy remembering, memory!
~O~O~ I call myself a chronic thinker. A few centuries ago, I’d have been called a Thinker. Or burnt at stake for being a witch.
My degree is my passport to the world of respectability. I moonlight as a troubled poet, a warrior princess and a closet sorceress. I am all of these and yet none of them is all of me.
All I was born to be really, was a story-teller. Scheherazade, Galelio, Cleopatra and Salvador have passed through. This time round, just call me IdeaSmith. Read more ideas

But then, why do we remember the negative ones we loathe more than the +ve ones?

Ditto Apoo, i think there is no such thing as 100% satisfaction hence we always want to fix broken things(including dreams), irony is , we do so with memories as well knowing that they cant be changed. I hate bad memories!

so if you had left earlier,
you would be remembered with loathing?
and it was ok for you to do
but not someone else?
maybe i am just missing the point here..

I just had to run, and run I did,
Away from me, and that’s the truth.
I kept runnin’, looking back, at the memory
That I was leavin’ behind,
Alas! Runnin’ in one big circle,
Not seeing that I was runnin’ towards you again!

@ st: That’s not for me to say. People behave differently after all. Personally I don’t remember people who walk away from me, fondly.
And there are no judgement calls here; this is an expression of emotion.
@ Brad: You hurt me. You heal me. You hurt. You heal. Where do you end and I begin?
@ Pravin: LOL….that is if I’m right in thinking that you’re thinking whatyou’re thinking!

..memory is a fickle thing isn’ it? one can remember in great details thing one would rather forget. and often strains to recall things one woud like to remember

Very well written… You put me through some similar experiences I have had in the past.
Not that I have forgotten them otherwise… but they have now found words…

@ Aseem N: Thank you. I hope remembering wasn’t a painful experience for you, though.
