=======
Tattered 'round the edges,
And faded now with time;
Memories that linger still,
Are what they left behind ~
Like a precious package,
Kept in a secret room;
Each memory a treasure,
A family heirloom ~
On rare and quiet occasion,
The package opens wide;
Revealing then the memories,
That nestle there inside,
Faces etched in memories
Like photos from the past;
Each snapshot printed in the heart,
Are memories that last ~
Worn and ragged photographs,
So faded now with time;
Yet the lasting love deep in your heart,
Is what they left behind ~
