Memory Lane
Memories are close friends of mine now
We became closer after he left and she left
From this world, then I was left with
Images of places and faces
And now that they’re gone
Their faults were so, so
But their good out weighed
Their wrongs
Memories are good
I don’t dwell in the past
But occasionally
Memories will visit
If I’m feeling sad
Memories will lead me to a place
Where I laughed and laughed
And sometimes when I had reason
To be mad
No, not insane
But righteous indignation
That caused me pain
But most importantly
Memories are like a sweet
Reverie
That God has blessed me with
To remember the past and things
That will be.
