Looking in the mirror,
seeing yesterday,
wishing like crazy
it was still today.
You're just an old memory
kept ever new.
Just an old memory
of me loving you.
Wild hearts, young and free
sure of endless love,
led us down sep'rate paths
What were we thinking of?
You're just an old memory
kept ever new
Just an old memory
In constant review.
I saw you from a distance
a few years ago.
You looked the same as ever
and I still loved you so.
Now I'm looking in the mirror
seeing yesterday
wishing love and life and you
had never gone away.
You're just an old memory,
kept ever new.
Just an old memory
of me loving you.
Just an old memory
of me loving you.

Great poem, I love it! And I can relate as I have lost someone I loved recently but didnt stop loving them. -
A buget of sentiments overflowing reminisces of yesteryear
Liked the repetition at the end

Very well writen. Good flow and i likes the repeating "Just an old mamory".
