seeds of memories

memories are like seeds
the more nutrients you provide
faster the growth rate
if left without caring, they lie
deep in the ground, without a symptom of life
in deep silence and numbness
waiting for the required nourishment

sometimes a word or an image
even a song or a message 
ignite your seed
those fruits might be poisonous or sweet
either you die or you smile forever
they help you to succeed in life
or kill you with nightmares

fruits develop as huge trees
root goes to the depth of heart
in autumn they shed memories
stored in green leaves
leaves may fall, trees may be uprooted
but the seeds will be left over
somewhere to germinate 
again and again
