Nov 2017
Slowly, then suddenly all at once
The moment fades
And the person you always thought would be there
Was suddenly gone
The way the leaves fall
At the end of autumn
One day they’re there
And the next
You’re staring at a bleak tree
And you try to remember the bright colored leaves
But you just can’t seem to
It’s like
Knowing you’re going to miss a moment
While you’re still living it
You have to create new memories
And you’re tired
You’ve spent so long creating something so wonderful
And within an hour
Everything is gone
And you’re stuck with all these memories you don’t know what to do with
Friends aren't always there. I've learned to cherish the moments and move on.
