~ Memoir ~

By: BlackHaru

Life goes on like a never-ending book

Sometimes I look back

Going through the dusty pages

Reading those paragraphs we've written

We played through the rain

Chasing each other on a field

Lying side by side, seeing the sky above us

Hand in hands, wishing on the same star

We walked through the endless shores

Watching the curls of sea over time

Writing our feelings on the sand

Those are the things I often recall

But, now...

Those feelings are washed away by the waves

They slowly vanish, drowned in the vast ocean

So is the 'me' in your heart

It's not only a distant past to me

Your smiles are fading

All that's left is a photograph

The frame might change through time

But, the same you always remain in my heart

A photograph that can't be replaced by anyone

Is it just a coincidence?

If I only I can skipped the pages,

To know the ending of the tale

This is inevitable, we shouldn't have met

I am ashamed to live within your memory

I couldn't protect you from the wind

Couldn't give you warmth when the snow fell

Though, these tears are worth flowing

If they can bring back your smile

Goodbye, my beloved

I can't walk beside you anymore

Only my prayers will be with you

You will find your true happiness

Without me...

You may forget who I am

But, I'll always remember every piece of you

The times that we shared,

The lessons you taught me,

The love you've given me

This precious memory that I treasure

is all I have to continue living

I know someday, we will meet again

You will remember who I am

And till that day, I will live...

Only for you
