Burning Memories

By vicimineo

I threw out all your letters
got rid of everyone,
I thought that this would change things
but I felt the same when I was done.

So I burnt up all your pictures
and silently watched the flame,
I thought that somehow this would help
but still I felt the same.

So what is left for one to do
​and where is there to turn,
When the memories of what once was
simply will not burn.
