Image Created on Midjourney
So you hold your 'flight' instinct
In a tightly closed fist
Let's all pretend this is for the best
Even when I carried your worst and
Never considered giving up on you
Can you just give me answers; closure; any kind of words?
(Evaporating memories are the only thing I have left)

“Can you just give me answers; closure; any kind of words?”- the pleading and yearning for a response is all the more powerful for the absence of a reply:/ You’re all over this challenge Poppy!
The memories might fade but there was wisdom gained.... I'd say that's a fair trade.
More sadness but great words
Evaporating memories, but lived experience.
Another great entry to the Silence challenge 🤩. So sad: “ Evaporating memories are the only thing I have left”
