Story Book

A story book, I hold to my face
Such adventures I see
The pages, my fingers trace
Oh how they relate to me

A smile twitches its way
Through the memories past
My reality is this day
But it will not last

Those moments were mine
Until they slowly started to fade
How I wish to turn back time
And back through those memories I'd wade

But they've formed who I am now
Made sweet impressions on my heart
And without them I don't know how
I could go on and not fall apart

This is my story book
It makes me feel alive
And when I take a look
Once again, I can thrive
