Years Gone By
A Poem
another one begins
It makes us remember
things that have happened and the has-beens.
Remember that and remember this,
what about the times, and why did that happens.
When did childhood end and adulthood start?
I believe when we weren't looking,
and began filling the memory cart.
As you look back on the stages of life,
remember everything you can.
From mistakes, to accomplishments, to lessons learned
Because we know that nothing's without strife.
But in the end, no matter what else will be,
You will always have friends and family.
Remember the ones who were there during the "ifs", "buts", "whens", or "whys"
The ones who've been there during the years gone by.
