The drawer

[ButrosButros_Grantos]

I opened a drawer
and was immersed,
in memories of times long gone,
things escaped,
and others
caged away.

I opened a drawer
and was reminded,
of friends current and lost,
of one night flings,
and high
school crushes.

I opened a drawer,
and was saddended,
by letters of love and,
gifts of same.
A valentines day,
heart balloon.

I opened a drawer,
and swallowed the truth,
For my memories had
learnt to lie.
But the drawer
could not.

i thoroughly enjoy reading your work butros.

i like the steady path this piece takes you through, it makes what you read extremely tangible as you visualise this happening...

the last verse is excellent too. good twist.
