I Remember

I remember a time
Where time was cheap,
Rented by the minute
To keep me awake.

I remember a dream
So long ago,
When dreams were dreams
Now they’re awake.

I remember loneliness
When I was alone,
Wishing for company
To help me sleep sound.

I remember a day
A day to remember,
With a gentle kiss
Snowflakes swooned down.

I remember a life
That wasn’t worth living,
Now resurrected
From a time I was dead.

I remember your name
Printed on my lips,
When I look for happiness
I call to the moon.

I remember a hope
A fool’s that I dared,
To enter reality
And take my nightmares away.

I remember to remember
For my reasons to stay,
To live to love you
I’ll remember always.
