Is it 'MEMOREX' or is it REAL ?

It isn't the feelings you feel anymore
It's the "memory"  of those feelings.
There is a difference.
It's like watching the making of a movie - "live"
or simply watching an old  re-run.
Those feelings - which have long died
are lying dormant somewhere deep in your soul.
Those feelings have been safely  buried
deeply entombed
But all it takes is a special song,
a movie that you shared
a familiar fragrance,
the place where you met,
the mention of their name.
the sound of their voice,
or one kind word from their lips.
Suddenly you are flooded with old feelings
that you don't really feel anymore
But your memory does.
