Trip Down Memory Lane

In an attempt to be more...something, I've decided to do my best to participate each week in the 100 Word Challenge. The word for this week is FORGETTING.


Let’s take a trip. We’ll begin by roving over each membranous fold and every cortical crease.

To your left you’ll see a crate containing memories of a birthday, to your right, graduation, and a first date is straight ahead.

But let’s go deeper--let’s delve into the darkest depths of the mind, explore every dank corner and push past the misty cobwebs dwelling there. We’ll dive past delectable morsels of self-deception. Here, we’ll find the memories driven into hiding.

Haphazardly shoved into the boundless shadows, their once gleaming labels scoured beyond recognition—jealousy, heartbreak, cheating, abuse.

Repressing but never forgetting.
