Garden of Memories

I dare you to take a peek into my life. :)

I invite you to take a peek into my garden of memories.

To take a look into this mystery called my life. 

Where everything you see has a story to tell. 

From how the tiniest of my teardrop came to be,

To how they formed into something that I now call ME.

Pick a flower from my garden of memories, 

For every beautiful thing is but a pretentious armor of my being. 

Take a sip from my stream of tears,

To have a glimpse of the thousand heartaches that I bear. 

Feel the treacherous wind flowing so calmly from my world,

And brace yourself for the storm that it will unleash.

For not everything you see in me is real,

But a mask that has allowed me to save you 

from the horrors that my life would reveal.

 

But before you peek into my life, I say

Once you enter my garden of memories,

You cannot go away. 

For whoever takes a look into my life

Would take a piece of me,

And those who holds a slice of my heart

Are forever bound to stay.

I can feel the pain. I know how sadness could drive you into the Garden of Memories which flowers bloom as remembrance of your heartaches.
I pray that this is just a sort of release and someday that garden would have a different picture: a picture of peace and contentment... just like me, and others dream of.

Aww. Thank you. I wish that too. But for now, this is how my garden looks like. :)
