I Will Remember

 I Will Remember

 I will remember a world

 lost to the masses,

 lonely in its material guise

 and shallow soul.

I will take hold

in my heart

the memories when justice

was a worthy passion

and kindness fed the emptiness.

 I will remember

 the youth I left behind

 with  remorse for it fed

 me lies and left me hungry.

I will remember

all those things

I fought for,

some I attained,

many I lost-

But most of all

I will remember

that being here-

Brought me the joy

of knowing there was love..
