memories

too many memories and not enough
too many smiles with not enough frowns
nowhere to go, but falling straight down
gravity bringing us to our knees as tears hit the ground
your eyes remain bright twinkling through the darkness of nights spent alone
capturing your wildness before it went out like a light of a home once full of love
now instead broken or torn like a chapter from a book of the past
as we're stuck in between pages pressed like delicate flowers once alive
trapped between words unspoken
driving forward into blackness.
