Brief Memories Are Fleeting Moments

We realize that living form day to day,
we cling to memories to cherish 
sentiments; tenderer they are 
in lovely and radiant smiles,
colder and lifeless they are
in loveless and uncaring hearts.
Grasp them, don't let them get away;
brief memories are fleeting moments
that we live while time stops
and waits to grant our wish. 

We realize that those days spent alone 
bring back memories we hold dear,
and feeling lonely we write another page,
jutting them down to preserve their cheer. 
Brief memories are fleeting moments,
and we chase them until they are gone,
until we can't catch another glimpse;
after twilight, they'll reappear in dreams.
