Dead Memories

November 7, 2023

Where has everything gone?

The single box of storage

That kept my memories

Hasn't been responding

And likely never will.

I was hoping that it would be

Alright tomorrow

But it has been weeks now

And no one has replied

Or noticed it was taken.

When is it getting fixed

And when am I going

To see it again?

You're leaving me stumped

Without any answers

And leave me to guess that

There's nothing I can do.

Had not those oven lights

Struck out that day

We would've still had it.

If there was much at all

To try and recover what

We had possessed for years

It's too little too late now.

No one here has cared since

And yet I still remember.

The memories are in my head

For the rest of time

And I feel forsaken.
