Memories of You

Poem 1
Memories of You

In the moments that passed by,

I never realized it

 

The early mornings and long nights

The screams, the shouts

The sadness, the happiness

All of it seemed to matter so much

Time felt like it would never pass

 

But then,

eventually, he left

and it wasn’t the same

but it was still us

If only I could’ve realized how fast time passes

 

I couldn’t realize it then

No one ever does

The present seems to move so fast

If I only I realized that

 

We looked back at the past with wistfulness

What was our present became our past

Moments turned to memories

It never occurred to us

That one day

Everything might just end

 

If only I knew it would end

If only I realized it sooner

If only I had been wiser

Maybe I could’ve made the most of it

But what’s done is done

Everything comes to an end eventually

 

Know that even when I grow old

Even when my hair turns grey

My face wrinkles

My eyes grow heavy

You will always be in my heart

The time we shared

With everyone

I will never forget
