Monologue
I love poems and creative work especially fictional based content.
Someday, I want you to remember,
The days that came forth,
The fights we fought,
And the days we lost,
I want you to remember,
What it took to grow up,
The battles within,
And what build us to win.
When we become,
The woman set in mind,
I want her to remember,
This version of her,
The imperfect one,
The resilient one,
I want her,
To forgive us,
For youth,
Never taught us what time did.
A gift, life is,
The memories I crave to keep,
For the future holds her,
And the journey,
Is becoming,
In old age, shall I reminisce,
With youthful laughters,
And energy striken beings,
Looking up in hope,
At our tired but happy eyes,
