THE WAY WE WERE
MEMORIES
AND SCATTERED PICTURES
OF THE WAY WE WERE
IS HOW I CHOOSE
TO REMEMBER
BECAUSE THE HERE
AND NOW
OF WHAT WE ARE
FRIGHTENS ME
THE FATHER
THAT SAID GOODBYE
AND WILL NEVER
BE COMING HOME
BURNS
INTO MY
SOUL
LAUGHTER
TURNING TO
TEARS
FRIGHTENS ME
LONELINESS
FRIGHTENS ME
FOR NOW
I AM ALONE
ON THESE
CROWDED CITY STREETS
READING THE FACES
OF PAIN
LIKE AN
OLD AND TATTERED
BOOK
LOOKING AT
THESE CHILDREN
LAYING A FLOWER
AT THE WALL
OF REMEMBRANCE
IS THIS HOW
THEY WILL REMEMBER
SAYING GOODBYE
FOREVER TO
THEIR DADS
EMOTIONS BURNING
LIKE THE SMOLDERING FIRES
BENEATH THAT
SHATTERED PILE
OF TWISTED METAL
NEVER TO BE
EXTINGUISHED
BECAUSE
I NEVER GOT
TO SAY GOODBYE
EXCEPT
AT THIS WALL
OF REMEMBRANCE
TRYING TO
ONCE AGAIN REMEMBER
THE WAY WE WERE
