Memories of days gone by
Hopes and dreams that you’ve let fly
Some are kind, some not at all
But most certainly they do enthrall

Our very core they do inspire,
The things which once did transpire
These snippets of remembrance
Held within a hazy trance
Fading slowly into black,
Are they real, or do they lack?

Recollections of our past
The moments in time that went by too fast
The hard times made you strong
The happy wished to prolong
The joyous made you laugh
The sad bring back tears past

All these memoirs form who we are
The things that have happened thus far
They all come together as our life’s summaries
These things are what create our memories
