Memories

I can’t believe these are all going to be memories one day

the life i live right now is going to be a faint memory

where all i can do is just smile thinking of it

these “boring” days, where i long for more

excitement to happen, are going to turn into the

“peaceful” days i wish i could go back to

each moment is fleeting and slips through my fingers

i can’t seem to stop time from taking them from me

each moment of joy is sullied by the realization

that i will never experience this moment again

behind each moment of happiness are the bells

of youth reminding me that my time is running out

everyday that pasts is just another page turned in the story of my life

some days i wish i could start at chapter one again
