Description
I remember altogether too much and too little
Too much of my pain
That stands out in a dreary life.
Oh, but for those happy days
Which slip slowly out the back door
And into another person's mind.

I remember a mother full of violence
But never physical.
I remember days without food
For doing one thing wrong.
And yet, for some reason that memory
Has lost itself and hidden from her.

I remember a lover full of lies
Gaining my trust and love
So I would put my life in their hands...
They laughed as they told me goodbye
And broke my heart over and over again
By looking back now and then.

I remember all the fun times I had
And wont ever have again
So the pain still comes-
But at least I still have the warmth
Of happy memories
Even with the bittersweet taste.
