Actions determine the now of time.
Yet the past lingers in our mind.
It shows me that, which used to be mine.
That which is lost, and which I cannot again find.
Oh, but the visits! Such pleasant surprise.
If only bitter tears weren't our goodbyes.
I sometimes wish, I could feel more.
That memories of you weren't being destroyed.
So I could sense your touch, which I so adore.
And not have you fade like echoes into the void.
Curse this world! And forsake my sanity!
I'd rather be mad, than in agony.
