Echoes Dance In Memory
Echoes dance in memory
With rough edges soothed
Over time to become nostalgia
A golden ticket for an aging heart
Making bleak times golden
Oft erasing enmity
So we make peace in old age
Knowing we don't have time
To carry on old grudges
Especially not to eternal slumber
Perhaps it's then ironic
We assuredly look back
Contemplating lost time
Everything we could have had
Yet slipped through our fingers
Cherish what we hold close
And never let them go
Because they may never come back
You'll never forget them
As echoes dance in memory
