Forever to Forget

What if you had a lifetime--
forever-- to forget?
The one thing that mattered
the one thing that made it all
worth every waking moment?

What if, sometime
you were given the chance
to remember the one thing?
Would you choose to remember
or live in a denying phase
never to dwell on dreams.

And when is it the right time--
perfect time-- to remember?
What is it that makes this world seem
so cruel?
The memories, or not having them?
