Memories

something i wrote whilst going through a hard time. based on a scenario i came up with in my head.

 

Memories

 

I first saw you lying in the sand,

Listening to your favourite band.

You turned and looked at me then laughed,

I must have looked rather daft.

Then we were the best of friends,

Saw you nearly every weekend.

Then we both shouted out,

Can’t remember what it was about.

Since then we’ve come apart,

All it does is break my heart.

Feeling like I could lie down and die,

I hang my head and cry and cry.

 

 I went to the beach the next day,

They said you had gone away.

All you left was a photograph,

The one that used to make you laugh.

Thought about what we did,

Like when you seeked and I hid.

And for that small amount of time,

I could say that you were mine.

Now I won’t see you again,

Hope I do, just don’t know when.

 

I’m listening to your favourite song,

Wondering about what I did wrong.

If I could go back to those days,

There’s only one thing I would change.

I would preserve the time we had,

Before it goes completely mad.

I wonder what had happened if,

It didn’t go all like this.

Would we have continued on?

Or would the love and us be gone.

You obviously do not care,

Or there would be no problems there.

 

On the back of that photograph,

That one that makes you laugh.       

Was "I’m sorry" surrounded by tears,

That’s why I kept it all these years.

Since that summer in the nineties,

Those days deep in my memories,

Now there wont be a moment when,

I don’t think about you back then.

 

I took out that photograph,

The one that makes us laugh.

I laid it on your grave,

And let the memories fade.

Wow, this is great, I love the story in it. Although sometimes the rhythm is obstructed a bit by the need to rhyme. Love it though, great write!
