This song is about love and lost and the emotions of going thru that.

I Think I Remember You

In the hush of cracked walls and faded paint,
Where your voice once carved lessons into the silence,
I stand, a shadow of the boy you raised, (Raised)
Grasping at fragments that crumble like brittle leaves.

(No I need them!)

Your hands, weathered by a lifetime of unspoken sacrifices,
Mapped the edges of strength and tenderness,
Now their absence presses hard against my chest, (My Chest)
A weight I carry with every breath I take.

(Dont take my breath)

By the lake, where the dawn whispered promises,
You taught me how to find stillness amidst the storm,
Now I skim my hand across waters that cannot hold you,
Reaching for a reflection that was stolen by time. (Whisper: No time)

The years unraveled too quickly, threads pulled loose by the wind,
Taking with them the moments I didn’t know I’d need,
I grew taller under your gaze, but now I bend beneath your absence,
Alone under a moon that offers no answers.

(Whisper: Answer me)

But I have finally realized something,
Something... that stings more than I can bear to admit...
I have only known you for a fraction of your life,
And now I must remember you... for all of mine. (Whisper: All of Mine)

I'll Carry You Poem

A time will come,
And alone, you shall be,
Afraid of what is,
And all that has left you.

You will shed tears…
And fall, they may,
Yet in their trail,
The truth will stay.

Chorus:
You’ll reach for ghosts,
Where laughter once was,
Hands gripped to nothing,
But the pain of their absence.

From the love made,
A sorrow will root deep,
And from that seed,
The ache will surely grow.

Thorned to your heart,
Turning every wound into a pulse,
You’ll taste the salt,
Weight pressing against your ribs.

Chorus:
You’ll reach for ghosts,
Where laughter once was,
Hands gripped to nothing,
But the pain of their absence.

Until your chest caves,
From the memories you couldn’t save.
When it claims you,
A mercy will not come.

Chorus:
So fade you must,
Un-noose the longing and lost…
Let your final heartbeat,
Shatter like glass...

Then die beneath,
Every soul you've carried.

Souls I've Carried

A time will come,
And alone, you shall be,

(Ad lib: Hold, Nothing...)

Afraid of what is, (They're)
And all that has left you. (Gone)

You will shed tears… (Feel)
And fall, they may, (The ache)
Yet in their trails,
The truth will stay. (Truth remains)

---------------------------------------------------
Chorus:
You’ll reach for ghosts, (Ghosts)
Where laughter once was,
Hands gripped to nothing, (Empty)
But the pain of their absence. (Hands)
---------------------------------------------------

(Nothing remains here…) 
(But a breath that chills my heart.)

From the love made, (Love)
A sorrow will root deep, (Turned to loss)
And from that seed, (Roots)
The ache will surely grow. (Of regret)

Thorned to your heart,
Turning every wound into a pulse,
You’ll taste the salt, (Salt)
Weight pressing against your ribs. (Of memories)

---------------------------------------------------
Chorus:
You’ll reach for ghosts,
Where laughter once was,
Hands gripped to nothing,
But the pain of their absence.
---------------------------------------------------

Until your chest caves, (No air left)
From the memories you couldn’t save.
When it claims you,
A mercy will not come. (No mercy)

So fade you must,
Un-noose the longing and lost… (Fade away)
Let your final heartbeat,
Shatter like glass... (Shatter!)

Then die beneath, (Die, beneath...)
Every soul you've carried.

Souls I've Carried Poem

I love playing with words, finding new ways to put them together to express what I feel. I hope my poems encourage others to share their feelings openly and honestly. My aim is to paint pictures with words, making them sing in a way that touches everyone's heart and mind. Through my poetry, I want to create moments that everyone can see themselves in, exploring emotions and thoughts that connect us all.
