Memory's Echo

Memory's echo, a beautiful melody,
Heard through the winds of time. 
The hope of the past, 
Only half the truth.

Memory's echo so distant, 
Yet deafening to my heart's beat.
The pain is beyond imaginable.
Must I always be reminded..

Leaves grow, leaves die, 
And through time, the tree
Lives on without a care.
Why must the tree stand, while I fall?
