Poem: "Forgetting and Knowing"

Is there a difference between forgetting and knowing,

you must know you forgot,

or the thought would never be lost.

We layer tile after tile

building a roof on our mind,

protecting it from the elements,

and the harshness of memories that weather us like turbulent storms.

Keeping us from the light on a sunny day,

sheltering us from chaos when the winds turn.

I don't think we forget,

because we always know,

somewhere within

what we truly feel.

Yet... we don't

let it breathe,

let it live

let it expand.

so

we put tiles on our mind

and pretend not to know

and call it

'forgotten'.

We don't forget,

we simply protect ourselves from knowing,

from feeling,

pretending to be stone,

instead of knowing

the miracle of flowering

and the beautiful

act it is to knowingly live in seasons.
