Echoes

Traces of yesterday,
Echoes of years,
Memories of laughter,
Held within tears,
Smiles of remembrance,
Sounds of surprise,
Thoughts of the past,
In the bluest of eyes,
Songs of forgiveness,
Waves of remorse,
Drown conversations,
That have run their course,
Time ticks by,
Spinning slow,
Into future pasts,
We've come to know.
