Old Memories

Take a walk down memory lane
Take a walk from your pain
Leave the sadness, leave all that's vile
Think to times that made you smile

Just let yourself fall, fall down deep
into the memories that always creep
up into the darkening back of your mind
that make you wish for happier times

Take heart! For if you no new moments, none good that last
You can always revisit those of the past
