bittersweet memories
October 7, 2012
My memories
Are bitter sweet
Like dipping chilli
Into melted sugar
The sweet moment
Of looking at photos
And the bitterness
Of remembering why
The sweet moment
Of meeting old friend
And the bitterness
Of why they're old
The sweet moment
Of a wonderful smell
And the bitterness
Of how they’re remembered
The sweet moment
Of baby hospital tags
And the bitterness
Of new ones
The sweet moment
Of knowing what you survived
And the bitterness
Of the scars
