Poetry Corner – “Remember When”

“Remember When”

I can still hear even in the back of my mind at night
The bees buzzing in the flowering trees of the spring
With the light sweetness in the air, oh right there
I can almost forget that the earth even moves

Beside you, the world can stand completely still

Back then
Remember when
Things used to be simple
Before the end
Remember when
When we lived and loved and didn’t let
Life get us down

I can still hear your laugh haunting me in a dream
The smell of your freshly washed hair in the wind
In the gold of the setting sun, you and I were one
It seems that time stopped in its winged chariot, just for a moment

Back then
Remember when
Things made some sense
Before the end
Remember when laughed and cried and didn’t let
Life turn us ’round
