ONLY MEMORIES LINGER

ONLY MEMORIES LINGER When we leave here, we take from here, less than what we brought here at birth. For even our blessed bodies remain behind us on Earth, until they too turn to dusty vapors. This then is our first asymmetrical, our lives , with death proving that nothing material is valuable in the end, at our individual and collective trails ' ends. We cease to be "we", as we cease to be at all. Only memory. Only memories linger as witnesses.
