Memory

A bundle of sunshine, a spark of hope
Makes you crave for so much more.
A person to love, a person to be
It’s all in your mind, in your memory.
The abstract feelings, keeping you free
The life you had, the joy, the glee.
But this was in your young memories
Oh the memory you wish to relive.
A smile keeps you safe, your soul healing again
The past, the present, the future won’t end.
Your friends around like, like the breaths of the wind
Are keeping you safe, outside and in.
