My Jewelry Box

Our lives are a jewelry box, Just think and consider, With rings of friendship, Both gold and silver, Some outgrown, But you still kept them together.
Our lives are a jewelry box, I have more proof, Bazaar things of masterpiece, But they are just you.
Our lives are a jewelry box, Do not doubt yet, For there are things in there, Full of regret, That ring from your boyfriend, The one you should have kept, A locket you never used, Yet admired all the same, You never opened that locket, The one that held your sorrows, You let it build up, And said it would be better tomorrow.
Our lives are a jewelry box, With things both old and new, Things that you will always, Carry with you, Some things you will cast away, Others will remain, Just to remember, The memories that have stained.
Our lives are a jewelry box, Can you not see? Our lives are a jewelry box, Both you and me.

Magnificent write~! Really makes you think about what memories your jewelry box does hold. Not to mention the ones you've lost in your mind somewhere. |

I happened to just run across this poem and I was completely blown away. I had never really thought about my life and the memories that have been created... but this made me think. It made me realize, all things happen for a reason.
"Both gold and silver,
Some outgrown,
But you still kept them together."
... no matter how far time takes you, those memories can not be forgotten and never will be. Again... I am speechless. -Amy
