Memories of a Person Past
By Liani Vargas
I remember the breeze hitting my bare legs
under the lazy- looking tree
I remember you calling my name
with a joyful grin to light up any day
I remember your honey-sweet voice
now poison to my ears
I remember every time I got closer to you
you seemed to get farther away
Until the day I couldn’t keep chasing
and the person I knew faded away
