Memories

In my memories you are there,
standing as light as air
with a grin on your face,
reaching arms for a sweet embrace.

How come you are not here?
does magic work by a tear?
because I have cried,
but no matter how I tried,
you are not here.
That is what I fear.

Regardless of how real you seem,
you are nothing but a dream
I can never realize.
That is what my memories verbalize.

I think of death,
in every breath
as I take your absence in.
My heart wants to give in.
I live to see it
slowly bit by bit.

Still I do not want you to die,
even if you are a white lie;
you live in me
as I can see,
as I dive really deep
into silent sleep.

As I wake up I remember;
I go through our anger,
through our laughter,
how we met on December
during that cold winter,
that will forever linger.

Beautifully written. The rhyme seemed to be a tiny bit forced though from my perspective. Other then that, I do love this piece. :)

Melancholy and dejected.. the memories
that forever haunt us with good and bad
times seem to never fade away completely.
Nice work...BB
