Hello, Memory Here...

I am the shadow you feel behind you,
I am the voice you hear in the night.
I’m sorry if I scare you,
I do not mean to cause fright.

I share in your joy when you are happy,
I feel your pain when you are down.
I whisper words to comfort you,
But you cannot hear a sound.

I am the person you see in the distance,
The one that disappears from view.
I am the person you feeling touching,
When no one is around you.

I am the person that takes care of you,
I am the angel from up above.
I am the one who keeps you from harm,
I am the one who feels your love.

You think that I have gone,
But I have never left your side.
I’ve just moved into the next room,
Your thoughts keep me alive.

Please don’t think I wanted this,
For you to be left on your own.
But the gate swung shut you see,
And locked me out of our home.

I want you to feel my arms around you,
I want to dry your tears.
But now all I am is a memory,
That will fade throughout the years.....
