At the end of the day, I look back and remember….and smile.

Sometimes it would be better to forget…but I can’t.

So I cloak the images with my own symbols and representations so I can say something without having to explain anything.

Sometimes I refuse to even paint the memory…but it is still there.

I celebrate my remembrances, sadnesses, triumphs.

They all will always be a part of me…till the end.
