Promises Less Broken

Periodically I would
Reminisce
Only to find
Memories of old have faded
If only we could keep these
Secluded in glass jars
Easy as that seems
So that we'd never forget all that we wish we could hold onto

Leaving me was the easiest
Especially since
Slipping away was your way of letting go of
So much you had no control over

Because it's harder to keep on being strong
Rehashing old wounds
Open and raw
Kindness should flow like rain
Everyone
Needs to drink it in
