Memories
When I look into the past
It’s not my face I see
Instead, it’s a little girl
Unsure of who to be
She is full of hopes and dreams
With passion in her soul
Everything is as it seems
And, for now, she’s whole
If I could go back in time
I’d greet her with a smile
And we’d sit until bedtime
Talking all the while
I would tell her to be strong
No matter what she’d face
For, some trials would be long
But she’d make it through with grace
She would tell me to have fun
And take some time to rest
Enjoy each moment in the sun
And strive to be my best
Together in my memory
We’d find ourselves anew
For I am her, and she is me-
Survivors through and through
