Memories of you wash over me
Painting colors dark and bright
Stepping out of the shadows of darkness
Into the welcoming sunshine light

Can you really lose something
That wasn't yours to start?
If the answer to that is no
Please kindly explain it to my heart

The memories...
They serve to help chase some of the pain away
Clinging to them, I hold them deep inside
Memories in every corner along the way

Bittersweet
Sometimes I wish the memories would just go
Then I would be left with a blank slate
This pain I would never know

I'd be missing something magical though
Despite the heartache, I began to heal
Searching for the answers
I strip to the core of me, each layer I peel

The pools of my eyes
Hold memories of a time not so blue
Memories captured forever
A time when there was me and you

"Life is not measured by the breaths we take, but by the moments that take our breath away"

"Into the welcoming sunshine light"

A lot of healing in your poetry. I think I'm a fan!
