A book of recollections
A book to reminisce
A book to remember
A book some never will miss

Pictures appear
Like ghosts from the past
Photos of faces
Frozen in time
Forgotten memories
Painfully exposed
Written epitaphs
Buried In pages
Full of graffiti
Scribbled on bathroom walls

Solemn reminders
Of youth
And those that shared
Insecurities
For things learned
That never really mattered

Haunting
Hallowed halls
Shadowy recalls
Of undefined moments

Pages that whisper
Return again
To a season in time
Remember when

Roses were red
Violets were blue
Sugar was sweet
And so were you
