Memories Fire

Tonight I'll take your smile
Tomorrow the memories fire
Never near me, Always away
The fire burns, but fires die
You smile and the world shakes
You smile and the sun rises and shines
You smile and the birds sing
You smile and all is still
You smile and the sun sets on it
Today all I take is the memory
Tomorrow I'll make a new one
Never near me, Always away
Memories only, but Memories change

  1. ****, I am curious is it sad or happy? I really like the way you expressed it.

  2. Thats a good question. It really is both. Its sort of a wistful sad happy? Its happy in the memories, but a little sad that they fade, but its a knowing sad. I don't know exactly how to say it, like acceptance.
