Grey Memories

There's something in the way the clouds move
across the grey sky.
It takes me back to a time
where future and happiness not really existed.
I can still feel that momentary lapse of love
which filled me then.
I used to cling on to those grey days
and savoured every letter, every kiss.
How could I even try to forget those memories.
When they shaped me into the man I am today.
It's worth so much more to retain all
the good and loving moments.
Instead of living with the pain of loss.
So I released myself from the cage within.
By remembering the deep grey sky.
