Tamagotchi ghosts

[wasellajam]

Hi, Keith! A few notes on my read:

They soon stopped feeding them,
forgot to give them exercise, I like feeding/forgot, ties them nicely.
no water for days, always an excuse,
always me who stepped in
to try and revive them.
This so clearly describes the truth. We so love their excitement with the new then they move on so quickly without a care, leaving us  saying wtf.

The boys left home,
all their unwanted childhood
stashed in boxes, Again the truth, we hang on to what was possibly never even important to those we love.
I found the dead Tamagotchi’s
at the bottom of an assorted Lego box. Love what was precious buried in the mundane, meaningless. Strong image too.

They where buried with memories I think this is stronger without this line, with the next line rephrased to fit.
I'd thought forgotten,
I tried for hours to revive her,
but some things
are just programmed to die.

If I listen too hard, I can still hear the breathing I don't remember tamagotchis making a breathing sound, so maybe her breathing?
on nights when I can’t hold my breath any longer.

Thanks for posting this, I"ve been enjoying it.
