Memories

Pictures up on my wall
Tape loses its stickiness
The pictures fall
And they gather
Like so many fallen leaves
On my floor
Ripped down
My memories captured
In color, black and white, sepia tones
The pictures send me back
To that one place
With that one friend
Where we did that one thing
New tape goes on the back
I press, my hands smoothing my memory
Back onto my wall
A collage of memories
A tear slips down my cheek whilst a smile plays on my lips
Mixed up
Emotions
Reactions
To memories...
