These Are My Memories

Memories of leaping sentiments
Have left indelible footprints on 
the sandy plantations path
Of destiny juggling with my life
And fortune drifting away
Of a companionship gripping a 
relationship
Was it fate spreading it's 
tentacles
To fulfil the satanic deeds 
And when dawn scouted 
around found the bond broken
In the heart of this time it is 
simple things that which are 
forgotten
Desecrated and defiled
They are fossiled in to the past 
Which is out of reach?
Is it not you and I 
And all of us 
Who make things simple? 
What is it that I need?
A thought to share
A glitter of your smile in the 
heart of this time 
How can I forget? 
Like a burning soul 
Like a hacking life 
How can I forget or remember 
why I did it
How can I forget how memory 
Like a mirror reflects on me 
How the sight of my eye on you 
can be indelible 
How can I forget such things? 
These are my memories...
