Treasures Of A Lifetime

Touch lingers with a life its own

A living memory

Imprisoned in this house of ghosts

Haunting deep within me

*

Encouraged to reclaim my worth

live, until you live again

Make a new way in this world

Let the loss become your friend

*

Eclipse of life, a journey

We all have wandered through the pain

Paths of roses, thorny

Still we tread them, all the same

*

Goodbyes are just goodnights

That have chosen not to wake

The releasing of the daylight

With no more promises to make

*

So, hold on to the memories

A touch holds, in your heart

Love and it accessories

Will heal up every part

heartbreak

    Memories help us to remember whether they be happy or sad or whatever. Beautiful.
