MEMORIES… I sat back on my chair In the lonely silence of the night, Thoughts whirled in my mind Like silky threads, That gradually began to define themselves.
A familiar peal rang in the distance The room dissolved into a huge square, I found myself amidst a sea of blue and white Looking around, Searching…

A slight change of view And yes, there I was yet again! This time running and sweating, Dribbling the ball, throwing a pass, Frustrated at a miss…
A few yards beyond I found myself once again! Dozing off on the hard wood of my desk, A droning voice humming in my ears ‘Smack!’, I was pushed out of my reverie... ................ Memories… They shower on you in a deluge, Leaving you with no refuge…
With a sinking hollow in my heart I stared unblinkingly at the blank wall, Silent tears streamed down my face… Smudging the words that formed My ‘Memories…’
