On the dresser, there is a picture.
It stands there in a pretty silver frame.
A moment in time captured on film, to look back on and enjoy.
The smiles pasted on paper forever.
On the nightstand, there is a watch.
It counts the seconds passing without fail.
Each moment slipping by as the hands move slowly in a circle.
Moments that are gone forever.
And time goes on and on.
With no thought to those it’s leaving behind.
We can’t hold back the sands as they slip through the glass.
Treat each moment like a treasure, and say good bye.
On the porch, there is a radio.
It plays all those old songs soft and sweet.
Each holding a note of sadness as it drifts through the air.
Melodies are never gone forever.
On the table, there is a paper.
It says all the things I can’t bring myself to say.
Each line is a tribute to the world you’ve left behind.
Your memory will stay with me forever.
And time goes on and on.
With no thought to those it’s leaving behind.
We can’t hold back the sands as they slip through the glass.
Treat each moment like a treasure, and say good bye.
Each moment is a treasure, and I’m holding on so tight.
I’ll tuck our memories away, and say.. good bye.
Xalia

Xalia,
It pained me to read this as it did you to write it. You have such a way of expressing your emotions. I loved this song it had special meaning to me.
