Life sways, through bittersweet flow,
Past memory, adrift we go.

To throw away what you are keeping,
Holding on to what you let go.

Close the gate of reason, meaning,
And keep on dreaming.

Treasuring a memory, etched in our soul,
A promise we hold, in the way of our being.

It lingers within us, forever sworn,
Until the very end, never any more.
