holding on is holding back

I like to save everything
and put them in boxes
to store on the shelf
or under my bed
piling up lumps underneath my head
so that the memories can stay with me
and I'll never forget

but my room feels kind of cluttered lately
and the boxes are overflowing
the papers and pictures are scattered all over my floor
stacked up to the ceiling
I can't even see out my window anymore
my memories are too messy
maybe I should throw them all out


besides,
there are some things that can't be saved
and they don't fit in boxes, anyway
I have to just hold them
and that makes it really hard to do other things
