The Treasure Chest

Opening up my treasure chest of memories, I allowed myself to indulge with a memory only shared between the two of us Looking inot the scap book with all your clippings underlining your name in red, the aroma of happiness rushed in As I looked into the middle I found the coursage inwhich I wore to our seinor prom, still crushed, but never touched Finding the memories that bodned us for the first time, the notes you wrote and every letter written while you were away Searching for the birthday card inwhich made me cry, I opened and read each and every word again, like the first time Kneeling looking out my window with the sun shinnng in my hair, I looked into a mirror and wondered whould you still see me the same way Sitting with a small smile on my face, silly tears fell into view, my oh my what a sentimental fool I am today As I reached the bottom, I had not forgotten the part that made me remember you the most Held on it for a moment and then let it go, but I am happy, happy to have a treasure full of happy memories that shall stay with me always........
