Memories of you are fading away
I can hardly remember you
Is it really stupid when I say
That I don’t really miss you?
I barely remember who you were
What you did and why
Forgetting you truly hurts
I swear it’s not a lie
Nine years have gone so fast
After you have died
Thinking that the pain would last
Forever, but I barely cried
I do have some memories
But are they really true?
Or are they just some stories
Others told about you?
I’m just scared that I forgot
All the things we did together
Are they real or are they not
Are all my memories gone forever?
I refuse to go further this way
I won’t let it come that far
I won’t throw these ‘memories’ away
You’ll always be my shooting star
Keeping your pictures close to me
Is what I’m going to do
You’ll be proud ‘cause you will see
That I will always love you
[In memory of my dad]
