Memories

Hey! I just posted my new YouTube video, The Fantasy Life!

Go check it out!

 

People change. People come and go. Friends, colleagues, teachers, people you loved, people you hated, and others. You might remember them, but to them you may be but a forgotten figment of the past.
You know how the days are just flying by and you look back and think of all those great times you had with your best friend or someone? Then, whenever you see something that reminds you of them, you can't help taking a stroll down memory lane...

Even if they're not around anymore, you know they'll always be there right by your side, as alive as ever through these reminiscences that run through your mind.

MEMORIES:

I can look at the most ordinary thing
A plant, a road, a bike, a ring,
And I see scenes that can break and heal me,
Lift me up and bring me down, all in a sea
Of the most profound emotions that I can’t escape,
That bring to life these landscapes.
I see things that once were,
And things that never were,
Things that could have been,
And things that will never be.
I see it all, from one sweep of my eye
Over the most trivial things I spy,
But they’re not trivial, not to me,
For they bring back dreams and memories.
They remind me of you, and all the time we spent,
They remind me of you and they give me strength.
Even if it is the most common thing,
A poem, a picture, a person, food or a drink,
I am reminded of you,
How like you there are so few,
And I want you to know
I’ll always remember you so
Your voice will never die,
You’ll never age in my mind,
For these dreams and memories I see all the time
Will always be with me to keep you alive.
