Stolen Memories

Yes, I confess,
I am guilty of the crime.
I am the one and only thief, 
And, I will now do time.

Yes, I stole each memory, 
Each moment spent with you,
I put them away, in my mind, 
Where I, alone, can view

The magic and the feelings, 
The joy, zest and the free,
Where I relive the happy times,
That you had with me.

Unfortunately, they end too soon,
Leaving me holding my heart,
Actually, I have to go view one right now,
Your memory’s about to start.
