Remember Me When

Think back in time
 the old days, slipping through our memories
when time moved slow, 
 awaiting satisfaction at reaching our dreams;
remember me, when
 there was nothing else that mattered
then the love we felt embracing every moment
 trying to breathe when hearts beat too fast;
in sync we took every step together racing
 in both laughter and tears that fall
and somehow we both knew, burned in our souls
 we were destined to be together;
hold onto those memories
 our youthful escapades,
the failures, mistakes, missteps, and success;
 the hard times got through
without having to say anything;
 listen to the whispers deep within your heart
and when I'm gone before you
 remember me, when 
time is no longer
 ours.
