Vanishing From Memory

Vanishing from memory… Memories of endless hours… spent talking the daylight away… Memories of secrets told…and no longing for yesterday… Memories of jokes shared…and of summer’s endless nights… Memories of wasted time…when hours were spent to say nothing… Memories of talks about nothing…the near end unknown… Memories of the last day spent together…when more love had never been known… Memories of the last conversation…held in the heart forever… Memories of the joy you brought me…lost in the pain of losing you… Memories of having you with me…lost in the desperation to have you alive… Memories of the happiness you brought us…forgotten in the longing to keep you… Memories of seeing you...ruined by the pain of missing a chance to reassure you… Memories of laughing with you…lost in the tears that mourn your absence… Memories of knowing you…lost in the pleas to save you… Memories of your protection… stolen in the search for your life… Memories of planning to see you…traded for their right to keep you…
