Zichronot: Our Memories

our memories

the memories we have of others

are faulty things

inconsistent, disjointed, warped by emotion

which ones carry on?

which are stored safe 

and which are discarded?

when we open the chamber of our memories

are we greeted with gratitude or pain?


our memories

the memories others have of us

are faulty things

inconsistent, disjointed, warped by emotion

which ones carry on?

which are stored safe

and which are discarded?

when they open the chamber of our memories

are they greeted with gratitude or pain?


to create good memories

we must cherish what is sacred

and let go of what haunts us


to create good memories

we must be builders of goodness

and repairers of pain


I pray to be remembered for good

knowing that I alone 

can make it happen
