Poems.

Memories.

What are memories?
A picture in a frame
On your bedside table.
Or a page in a diary
Under your pillow.

What are memories?
An old silver pen
With a broken nib.
Or a gold pendent
With your name on it.

What are memories?
Your High School Year Book
With her autograph.
Or his corsage red rose
Still pressed in your favourite book.

What are memories?
Right words spoken to
The wrong guy on a beautiful day.
Or unspoken words to
The right girl on a beautiful night.

What are memories?
Dancing in the rain
Having the time of your life.
Or a picture of you
With all your friends by your side.

What are memories?
Something worth
Living your life for.
Something worth
Remembering your life for.

From

From the shadows of past
I look in the future
And I dream in the present

From the sunset in the evening
I wait for the sunrise
And I hope for a better life

From the grievances of old
I smile at the today
And I pursue the happiness of future

From the thoughts in my mind
I believe in what I write
And I feel the passion

From the life I had
I welcome the life I have
And I look forward to the life I will have.
