Memories

I slip away unseen
 to all the memories relived
 within my nightly dreams,
now suddenly as daylight breaks
 I wonder how easily all we love
 bows to the memory of our gives and takes.

For just a moment surreal
 everything becomes a memory
 the escapades, the emotions we feel
but that's really all it is
 isn't it?
 The dream we shared that still lives.
