Memories

"Memories"

At times I can amuse
Making you grin,
At times I can abuse
Making you wince.
I make you smile
Then I make you cry
For I am very versatile.

At times I bring comfort
Making you reflect,
At times I bring pain
Then me you'll reject.
When I bring joy
You want me to persevere,
When I bring agony
You want me to disappear.

But I'll always go on
Until the very end,
Until death has won
Over you my friend,
Then with you I will die as well,
For I am just a memory,
And only in you I dwell.
