"They whispered to her,
'You Cant Withstand The Storm.'

She whispered back,
'I Am The Storm.'"

Memory is not forever 

Moments are not pictures

Hold them tight they say


I can't

I want, but I can't   

I never remember 


Memory as elusive as the mist 

Memories I can not reach 

Always an inch away 

Never close enough


I can't remember 

I can't remember 

I can't 


Memory is not mine to obtain 

Memories are not mine to remember

This is a poem I wrote about my retaining memory. I don't have any retaining memory which makes tests and studying very hard for me.
