Just Another Book

Shine.

You shined the brightest

In the darkest of my memories.

You are the reason I don't regret

Any of the miseries.

I remember when you

Showed up in a clown suit

Because I was down

Just your presence is enough

To erase every trace of my frown.

I wanted to do the same for you

But I guess we ran out of time.

You traveled to the stars

Leaving me alone with the scars.

Every street we walked on

And the flickering lamppost

Under which we held hands

In every trip I take down the memory lane

You shined the brightest.
