If a memory can be a shadow,
If a memory can be the light,
If a memory can be the hope,
If a memory can be the sadness,
Which memories would they be?
Would it be
The time when the world turned away,
Or the time he took your hand in his,
Or the time when they fought for you,
Or the time the memories were all you had
Would you base the only future you'll ever have on the past?
Many people choose to do this
I chose it too
But I've learned something since then.
I'm okay with the world turned away
because I still have the ones I love
I'm okay with how he left me
Because for a moment in time I had him
I'm okay with them not fighting for me
Because now I can fight for myself
I know these things so I choose different from before
I choose to not depend on those memories
I choose to remember them for what they are.
My past.
and now I look to my future.
