Analysis of Memories



Memories.
 Some foggy,
 some clear as day.
 Some to embrace,
 some I want to hide away.

I get déjà vu,
 of places I have never been.
 Some I say "oh!"
 Some I can't pin.

I look at mere,
 forest glamour.
 I know I should,
 watch my manners.
 But I can't resist.
 That's my home,
 in my memories.
