Dear time,
Do not steal my memories until I phrase them down.
Dear memories,
Do not fade away until I write you down.

Dear mind,
Do not get changed subconsciously,
That I wipe those pangs of anguish
Which reminds me of my naive and true self.

Dear heart,
Do not be so tired of holding it all,
Before I turn it into poetry,
It'll wash away.

Dear tears,
Do not rain so heavily,
All these things I've held for years
Shall wash away
Before I turn them into the ink of my pen.

Dear anger,
Do not turn yourself into fire,
That I shall burn all the love
In that flame of agony
Before pouring it out.

Dear Life,
I do not want a second chance to live.
Rather, I want to immortalize this
Through the memories I lived.
So don't let me forget
What I had
Before I write it down.

Dear time,
Do not steal my memories
Until I phrase them down.
