Anew

by Dan   Jul 18, 2008


Remember those times long past
Cherish the memories you hold so fond now
Because one day,
The people that were in that memory with you
Shall be forever gone
Be forever forgotten
Not to be heard of again
Or to be seen ever again
I write this now to remember
To remember those days I shared with my mom
The times I had with those friends back home
The reckless abandonment we all shared
But yet, it is all gone
Two thousand miles away from them all
Those friends who loved you
The family that raised you up to be strong
To be independent
Now I must stand strong
Cause now I am with dad
These whispering voices in my head
Are not my fears
Or my guilts that slowly are consuming me
They are the memories of long before
Seeking to return to those who had shared them with me
Seeking the feelings of joy and exuberance
What can I say now?
Why did I leave the place I called home?
I miss those girls that were my best friends
I miss those guys that were my boys
I miss my mom and her kisses
I miss Anna and how she would say I love you Daniel every morning before school
I miss all so much now
I sit hear in a 9 hour drive
Realizing all that has been left behind
The ex girlfriends, the heartache, the suffering
But all the joy I had along with it
Must I say that I am happy now?
Or is it a lie that I use to shroud my true feelings?
For now lets just say
I will start anew
