What makes us who we are

Memory is an echo of the past

It’s sound, scent, touch, and fleeting whispers

Our experience and knowledge

What makes us who we are

Our understanding

Shattered pieces of the mind

Images that stretch before us

Glued together by threads, straining to keep them in place

And still, they fade before our very eyes
