WDYS – memories

i used to go out

the journals are piled up
in a corner of my closet
the photos are resting in a shoe box
and the memories are fading
i am alone

However, darkness lurks in the corner, waiting for an opportunity to take us down. Be wise and keep a source of light at all times.

Enter at your own risk
You can find pleasure
You can find sorrow

it's easy to say
not so easy to do
advice, everybody has one
but the recipe is a secret
nobody knows where it is
free your mind
i imagine, it will need
2 cups of forgiveness
2 cups of compassion
1 cup of kindness
1 teaspoon of joy
mix everything together
bake for 1/2 hr at 375 F
oh, i forgot the most
important, the baking powder
for this recipe it'd be self-love
without it
no mind will be free
