Fleeting Memories

Once an oasis, now a mirage

Once moments now, memories 

In this tapestry of life 

Nothing is permanent 

Once sweet whispers, now distant stars

Once forever, now memories we are

Yet amidst the shifting sands,

We find solace in remembered hands

People don't change, priorities shift

From she to her or from he to him

Long journey yet short in retrospective gaze 

Yet we move forward, cherishing moments 

For in the end, it's not the years 

But the love, laughter, and tears
