Memories are the special moments that tell your story. ๐
Remember meโฆ
And these precious screenshots of life.
We always knew,
One day weโll have to say goodbye.
Even though we are thousands of miles apart,
Iโll always hold your once warm smile in my heart.
That jump in your step, mischief in your eyesโฆ
When it was easy to make friends,
Without having to think twice.
The efforts you used to put, to make someone elseโs dayโฆ
Remember how good it felt,
When you strived to make their worries go away!
I will always keep the friendships safe for you to recall, even though they came in every shadeโฆ
I know you cherish them, and why not? Thatโs the only bond youโve yourself made!
Remember meโฆ
And all those lovely pendants and ringsโฆ
I wonโt ever let you forget,
How much you loved floral and pretty little things.
You had your own phases throughout this time,
A few now embarrass you, others just make you laughโฆ
Remember meโฆ
Iโm the proof you once enjoyed being photographed.
That perfect black dress,
Or walk on the beach in moonlightโฆ
I know you will smile when you reminisce,
The night above the waters that felt so right.
Those stories in your head, and chatter all nightโฆ
These were the times when it was easy to believe,
That one day everything will be alright.
All your life youโve loved fairy tales and magic cartsโฆ
These were the times when you realized,
Sometimes miracles are just good people with kind hearts.
Remember meโฆ
And that beautiful sunrise blissโฆ
Close your eyes for a moment and recall,
The way how hope in your heart feels.
Remember meโฆ
And that you have nothing to regret.
You tried with everything you could,
Iโve lived all your words that were left unsaid.
The wings were not real,
Yet you somehow spread them and soarโฆ
You used to love rains,
But things are not the same anymore.
Goodbyes were always hard,
You tried not to cry every time you were out the doorโฆ
Remember how you turned your head one last time,
To capture the image of people you used to see every day before.
There will always be many โ โYou donโt take a standโ & โYou always have your wayโ,
Please remember,
That you are not defined by what other people have to say.
You have always worked very hard,
For each and everything that you wanted to doโฆ
You have become your own person,
Iโm fully aware of the struggles you had to go through.
Remember meโฆ
I am the bunch of memories you adoreโฆ
You fear losing me,
Thatโs why you treasure these photographs evermore.
Hey! Look at me,
Iโm your bittersweet pastโฆ
Stillโฆ Remember meโฆ
Cause a thing is not beautiful because it lasts. ๐
