MM – 1/20

The photographs have faded now

Those memories from my past

But the love remains within them still

And that shall forever last

These beloved treasures packed away

In a box upon the shelf

To be opened on a pensive day

When I want to find myself

When I wish to remember who I am

And how I came to be

Those faces come to life once more

They are a truth that I can see

As I hold each image in my hand

And I will them back to me

My heart is filled with a silent ache

For I know that can never be

So back into that wooden coffin

With brass hinges lock and key

I gently replace my memories

Laid to rest for eternity
