When I Become Your Memory

The day will come, 
 seems inevitable
 when everything finds its place and time,
in the sun light of morning
 when we walked together, 
 everything seemed perfect;
as the years passed, 
 looking back held no importance
 only now remained all we had,
perhaps, it was all 
 we needed and as the age began to fade
 the happier experiences reappeared
that is all I leave you, 
 the bad times turned to good
 when I become your memory.

It is true, as we age we do see the world and others less severely. Best is when we start to forgive ourselves. Great read!
