A Flood of Memories

Looking back at the photo album,
  I see what we used to be.
I quickly realized my love,
  Just how much you meant to me.

I sit in agony knowing you’re gone,
  And watch the clock tick away.
The moment you left my life,
  Was the day my sky turned gray.

You meant the world to me,
  And gave me happiness.
And now that you have left,
  There is much that I confess.

I can’t forget your love,
  And our wonderful chemistry.
And every time I think of you,
  It sets off a flood of memories.
