Under the Rug, Behind the Curtain
We often walk by familiar objects, without really looking or even really seeing their form. Forgetting memories they once held, or feelings they’re attached too. It’s only when we touch their textures that we reminisce, relishing in the small glimpse of happiness they once offered us.
“Memories are like mercury. Every time you sort of try to get near them, they slip out of your hand like a bar of soap.
