The memories
They come back to haunt you
No intentions or promises
Were ever made
Memories lie in your heart
No way to get out
Stuck in your heart
Forever
Just wait
And cherish them
They won’t haunt you
If you remember
All the good times you two
Had together
Do you
Remember that day
Underneath the clouds
Watching the stars
Pointing at the stars
And telling a story they
Remind you of
Those were the good old days
I’ll remember every memory
You placed in my heart
Even when I’m no longer
Living on earth
Memories can’t haunt you
If you’re true to yourself
And everyone around you
Only karma can haunt you
Not the good old days
Throw away the sorrow
And remember
Sorrow can’t haunt you
Unless you allow it
I look past my window
And the picture is inviting.
I see the sun,
reflecting from a piece of mirror
trying to hide between the pebbles
of the old lily pond.
I went out to sense more beauty.
The touch of humid air,
gives sensation to my weary skin.
And the love song of the trees
is like an elixir that brings my strength.
Then a shot of shadow caught
the linings of my eye.
And my heart stumped
like an old nagging duende.
I knew that’s him.
He took my hand and raised me
from the stone where I was sitting.
His stares make the loquacious water
from the fountain to seize down.
