What Memories Will Time Forever Hold?



memories are things that we as people hold onto and don't want to forget.memories sometimes slip away and we sometimes have small recollections of those memories.you try to grab hold of the small,fleeting bit and when you can't and it passes,you feel empty,and sad.the past that was forgotten.left behind.but,those memories were once the present and that present time had gone by so quickly.we wish that fun time had lasted forever.but you knew it wouldn't.time goes on,it doesn't stop for you or for anyone.it washes you away over minutes,hours,days,years.it washes away your footprints the way the ocean does just after you step in the sand.that footprint will never come back,it won't stay.no one will ever know that it was you who stepped there.or that there was even a footprint there in the first place.

over time rees fall,rocks erode,cities grow,small towns deplete,species become extinct and new ones appear,people forget you,you forget those people.children grow up,you grow old,and your elders become ancient.before you know it,you have adapted to different things,a different place.you recall certain moments and wish you had done something instead of refusing or just sitting back to watch.you realize you can never change what you did or what you never did do.before you know it,time has left you,and your life was given to someone else.


what you just read probably was stupid and didn't make any sense in your opinion.that's okay though.i just had this thought that came to me while i was lost in a dream.it left me thinking and thinking and thinking and i couldn't stop thinking about this.if what i wrote made any sense to you and it reached your heart or left an impression,im happy it did.if it didn't,that's fine too :).what i wanted to say,in simpler words,is that i find it sad that i won't ever look the same again as i did and that i will become old and if i did something that was important to me in a certain place,a person that comes upon that place will never know what i did.and i find it funny how i can think of time as a person and wonder why Time is leaving me.and i always wonder:where will my memories go when i'm gone?and who will remember me?
