Once in a blue moon
I'd hear a familiar melody echo in the distance
and my body would tense up:I'd sing along to the song,
taken aback by the fact that I still
remember most of the lyrics.Each and every beat would bring back
memories that I once held dear to my heart.Those memories I chose to bury deep
At the back of my mind,
Hoping that they'll never resurfacebut they did
And here I am now,
Singing along, teary-eyed.I once let go of bits and pieces
Of hopes and dreams:
I had knowingly given up
the very moment I let the wind blow everything far away in the distance, never to be found.Yet here I am now,
Holding bits and pieces
Of an unfinished puzzle,I am reminded
Of everything
That could have been
