remember you, memories

Prelude — pensive

Your scarf still hangs from my chair

Old letters folded in my air

June sunlight painted on your face

Lost in the corners of this place

Verse 0 — slow, unfolding

The mirror holds your shadow’s shape

A faded echo, can’t escape

I press my hands against the past

Hoping silence doesn’t last

Verse 1 — soft, almost whispered

I kept your laughter in a jar,

Beside the wishes, near the stars.

The days grew old, the skies turned blue,

But time forgot to bury you.

Chorus — gentle, aching

I remember you, memories,

Like fallen leaves upon the sea.

Though you're a page I can't undo,

My favorite past still looks like you.

Outro — whispered

If we meet where lost years bloom,

Save me a place inside your room.

I'll be the stranger passing through,

Still remembering you.
