Mementos

What do you remember?

Long hours in school or the fun you had in there,
Your first kiss or the first day you met,
Your first girl friend or the first break up,
First day at work or your first salary.

What do you remember?

The dreams you realized or the ones that remained just dreams,
The fun you had with friends or the friends, who were fun to be with,
The day you said, “I do”, or the day you thought you should not have,
The time you spent with your loved ones or the hours you spent elsewhere for them.

What do you remember?

The shoulder they relied upon or the support they were to you,
The Love that you had or the love that never was there.
The words that you spoke or the words, you should not have spoken,
The one you want to be or the one, that you wanted to be.

What do you remember?

For you are what you remember,
And will be, what you choose to remember,
And they… they will remember you,
For good or for not, so what do you remember?
