Memories

Memories,
Good or bad you matter not,
Harm me not you young or old,
Though you be of only past,
Future not what's not to pass,
never much what presents are,
Puzzles, bugs and frightens me.
Since I first knew of your existence,
my core so deep is shaken throught,
my soul maimed, my mind frozen
pain and aches I only feel,
long for impossibles.
Oh, memories...
