Perseverance is not one long race, but many short races one after the other<br /> -Walter Elliott


They float around me like fireflies

I pluck them from the sky like apples from a tree

I cuddle up in them like a warm blanket

I sip on them like sweet tea

I listen to the like the best music

I dance with them like Cinderella at the ball

I lay on them like a soft bed

They comfort me like a loving mother

They are what make me, me

They are what keeps me sane

They make me feel whole

They are my memories...

If you don't remember anything, you don't know anything. Memories are what make us.
