Memories

The art of forgetting
Is also the science of vaporization
The most volatile bits of us
The kisses and conversations and…
Will disappear quickly
The more pernicious things
The things that have sunk in
The sound of your laughter, the warmth trapped between our palms, the knowledge that you drool unsexily on your pillow when you sleep…
Those I’ll have to shake out of me
Agitate myself till they too are ready to dissolve
Into the atmosphere of memories
And I shall have to do this again and again and again
Till the pain becomes a memory
And then again
Till the memories become memories
