Analysis of MEMORIES
MEMORIES
I was able to write in time
The feeling not sired
The moment still desired
And the memories still a bliss
Boy I tell you
In the breeze your cologne became my boo
The rays bounced layers of beauty in waters
But your face the only explicit layer of colours
Grass blades shone of due
But your smile the only fathom per due
We lived in the moment
I loved each memory
The sun's scorch so intimidating
But your voice rattled the jiggles of time
Boy I tell you
They were times forever plastered
Sweet was the venture
I only wish for more adventure
Maybe a sling bag for two
Will carry the steps forward too
I only had a glimpse
Can you blame me wanting again the bliss
I hoped for time still
Maybe then I could forever live the time loop
Boy I tell you
They were memories
Don't think it's easy to rid me
I want more
