Memory Album

Borrowed from the passing of time.
Ghosts and shadows from bygone days,

Etched and stored inside our minds.
Our minds are a memory album
Where the past and present meet,
Memories we lovingly cling to
That makes the heart skip a beat.
Some we would like to forget.
Some we love to treasure.
Some memories become precious gifts
That lives on forever and ever.
Yes, memories are precious moments,
And I have quite a few,
The memories I treasure the most
Are those I made with you.
