Of Memories

Peace recently located,
Or relocated perhaps,
To an easy-to-find place—

Only requires accepting,
Fully, truly accepting,
That how this turns out for you

Will never matter for you.
Can you embrace that absence?
It’s not just you don’t matter—

It’s not all wise perspective.
You can’t possibly matter
To your disappearing self,

So let yourself disappear.
It’s all always behind you.
Of what could you feel afraid?
