Memory

Memory 


so its time to learn about myself
cos every day im getting worse 
looks like its time to take a fall
but life gets better after all 

feel like ive lived enough to know 
how things creep up and take you slow
find solace inside ones own walls
does life get better after all ?

say farewell to the life we had 
but now your gone i dont feel so sad
the pain that you used to endure 
has ceased but i have hit the floor

your memory will forever be
in thoses you loved and indeed me 
you held me up in times of need
stayed with me when others fled

last call now we lay you down to rest 
dear friend we now say goodbye
untill we all meet again 
this story will never have an end

ill raise a glass and fake a smile
then turn my smile into a sigh
but i know you will always be
with me in a


memory
