A hot cuppa coffee in the rains
Tiny hands clutching your fingers
Brilliant fireworks lighting the skies
A first kiss, hearts beating fast
A lifeless toy so close to the heart
First strand of silver amidst the black
That little dimple, that lock of hair
First ever taste of alchohol on your lips
A favourite song you know by heart
That cold night, u lay awake in terror
That first dance, lost in each other’s eyes
Simple dinner, shared with family, made special
The teacher you worked so hard to please
That guitar you strummed, playing out your soul
A family holiday, full of mindless laughter
Smell of food, cooking in the kitchen
A red rose, preserved inside a book
A party when you danced into the dawn
Your very first salary earned by your own sweat
A warm hug received from a caring heart
A game of colours, drenched to the core
A grim farewell, your heart torn apart
Pride shining, on the face of a parent
First love, so innocent and special
Bedtime tales, a new one every night
A fight with friends, that punch on the face
Playing games around a bonfire on a camp
Promises made, vows taken, relationships forged
Dares you performed in your college canteen
A tie, passed on by your father
A rakhi you tied to your brother
A morning you woke up, with a smile on your face
Moments spent, in the arms of your soulmate
Innumerable memories, packed within you
Ethereal, eternal, boundless and magical,
Other than these, what is left is evanescent,
Be it life, time or people, each will soon fade away…
