Memories
I want to forget.
I don’t want to know anymore.
I drink, hoping to drown myself.
It makes the memories stronger than before.
I tell myself it just hasn’t worked yet.
I drain the bottles,
one
by
one.
But the memories of him will not go away.
They are ghosts.
They haunt me.
And they know how to swim.
