Perfect Memory

Perfect Memory

Her memory is just good enough
that she gets the same familiar feeling
after she makes the same mistakes
She loves
and loses
and nurses her bruises
Brave enough to try again
after leaving time for her heart to mend
a year
a month
a day or two
the time it takes to forget
"Hi, my name is _____.
I don't believe we've ever met."

Yup. I didn't write what I wanted to write about today. Maybe I'll find the inspiration to do it tomorrow. I dunno. This is what I wrote instead. It's not half bad but not great either. Maybe if I was brave enough to include a real name but I'm not. **cowardly raises hand. Yup. Peace out.
