Faded Pictures

Through memories I wade
Trying to remember
The picture of your face
For the years have faded
What I thought I had saved
Not sure if what I have etched
Is true or imagination
Nostalgia takes over
At the good old days
Repercussions of this remembering
A little raised smile at the glow
That radiated from you
Together with a deep sadness
At the hole that you have left
The one that time hasn’t filled up
Because you took a piece of me
With you to that far away place
