I pushed the memories of her <br />back to wherever it is <br />that unwanted memories reside. <br /> <br />Sometimes <br />the memories <br />slowly creep forward <br /> <br />even without my knowledge <br />until they fill my mind. <br /> <br />They do not belong here <br /> <br />in the present! <br /> <br />I swore that they would stay buried <br />in the past. <br /> <br />But memories don't listen. <br /> <br /> <br />(1999)<br /><br />T.J.
