Memories

Memories flow through the glass
Petals upon parted lips
Snow fades on hot skin
Diamonds shine within stars

Random lines wither in shadow rhymes
That you will never read again
Silent prayers fade in blue skies
I weep but never hope to see you again

Parted by evil fate or blessed destiny
Angles sang different paths for us
As we flow within faded memory
Like silver light of untouched stars

Memories float above upon the stars
With melody so high
A silent chord rises and dies

Within my heart so deep I bear still
The scene, faded vision
Of the eyes I loved in a dream
Forgotten scene, forbidden illusion
That I still sense within

Memories are the stars
Within dreamy eyes
Memories are the scars
Upon hoping soul
Reviving song
Silent soothing chord
Flowing forever in starlit sky

Memory dwells on sweet lips with honey-like wine
One sip is a door into yesterday, wanted arch to the past
Take it in and walk through the mirror of time
Forget now the sorrows and pain and trust

Like falling asleep
Walk now into the memory
Dream once again of me

Follow the fleeting flash of memory
Drink it deep in
And reveal yourself to it endlessly
