you have given me forever
a gift I could give back
but somehow I don't think
you'd take it

this little forever
I carry with me
everywhere I go

the forever brought
to the surface
by little things
that remind me of you

a distant melody
a reminiscent memory
another and another

until I realize
you are everywhere
wherever I go in this world
you will always be near

I will always have something
to remind me of you
for I carry this forever
inside of me
a gentle reminder
of the truest love
I have ever known
to exist
