Whistling winds sway the mind’s restless pines
A chill once familiar still lingers in the air
I pray to remember when seasons changed slowly
Memories are the light that returns from above
Embracing skin that shivers from frigid thought
Spring’s awakening blossomed gently
Into promises of summer, forever eternal
We were never afraid to fall victim to the frost
Memories are the light that shines brighter than fear
Breathing life to wild flowers that color the brightest days
Weathered hearts aged with grief beat slow
The rage of winter stirred in hollowed chest
You held me still in the warmth of your fire
Memories are the light that fill empty spaces
Giving a heart, forever full of hope, a reason to race
Flickering embers dance into darkness
Burnt luminescence paints the sky with stars
Our love, the night’s brightest constellation
These memories are the light that I always hold close
Floating weightless in the wonder of your atmosphere
In a place above the pines
