The Ballad of Ashley Brown

My thoughts go now, to Ashley Brown.
And yet I wonder, how?
She flickers like a candle's flame,
just some shadows, a voice, and a name
that hides away in the back of my brain,
next to the dreams and the regret.
A girl about the age of ten,
when I was ten, it was long ago when
she smiled like she was my friend,
and said, "Hi, my name is Ashley Brown."
So many lives have passed since then,
too many changes, but then again,
I have become a different kid,
or not a kid, because I did
grow up to become a man.
But I'm afraid I no longer am
the kid who knew a friendly place,
a forgotten year, a misplaced face
that might once have graced
the fondest dreams of which I've chased,
or have chased as is the case.
As my thoughts wander now to Ashley Brown,
I search for the memories, begin to frown,
pick up the year book, to put it down,
because as much as I try to come to terms,
I just can't seem to remember her.
