Memories
are old photographs
faded and torn
burned into
the deep spaces of or minds
They are repressed occurances
stored deep in our souls
ocassionaly they escape
from our eyes
and roll down our redened cheecks
Memories
are glimpses of day gone bye
a snap shot of yesterday
a single slice of life
all rolled into one
They are flash backs
to a cherished moment in time
a blissful dose of preoccupation
to escape from
the worries of today
Memories
are a bittersweet reflection of the past
an ancient unforgtten relic
where hours and days
seem to stand still
forever
They are startling secrets
held close to our hearts
buried deep down inside
a vivid visual reminder
of what once was
Memories are....
Memories once were...
Memories always will be...
a looking glass into our lives
