Memories fade over time
Don’t forget what you left behind
Little trails of your past scars.
Only to be replaced by something else.
Death brings life as winter and spring suggest.
Growing leaves through the snowing skies.
Just as the seasons change with time. You shed your old life in different ways.
Smiling back as you remember the old days.
Looking back is never an easy choice
Buried thoughts amongst the noise.
Chunks of ice floating by
Finding light within the dark
Motionless visions that lie ahead
Intuition always knows best.
Reflective mirrors cannot hide
Of memories leave markings on our lives.
Nowhere to run. Nothing you can hide.
Leaving everything all behind.
