Always

We felt we had all the time in the world.

But fate is never that kind.

All that’s left are the memories that creep up on me, and the road behind me unwinds.

I know I need to look ahead, for that’s the only way I can go.

But forgive me, if I look back, now and then,

And wish reality would bend just one time

And let me hug you again.

As long as I can hold your memory, there still won’t be an end.

I’ll see you when this life is through. Until then, stay watching over me, like I believe you always do.
