Memories of You

Golden bits of dust ,from a glorious past, lost in the winds of memory , of moments that last, for years in the hazy and shadowy alleys of the mind, flecks of existence that were left behind, in the desperate effort to find a better tomorrow, shimmering reflections in the lake of the heart, lost in the depths, in the search of a fresh start. A whirlwind of thoughts comes to me today, stirs something inside me that longs to get away. something old,ancient , in the labyrinths of my brain, that threatens to change all i know ,and drive me insane. they say you reap as you sow, i believe as it all comes back to me now, everything i lost in the struggle against time, as my vision was distorted and blurred with grime, of my own false belief and an illusion of success, in a mad race for what i thought was happiness. today as all falls silent, my ambitions come to rest, I realize, the memories of you are my real treasure chest.
