The string full of memories

There must be a memory
which you don’t remember
There must be a ‘present’ in the past
That you never lived

They lie there
Beyond your reach
In the opposite direction
Of the arrow of time

But this step
Is where you stand
Real and now
Is where the moment waits

The stairs go up
to the stars in your eyes
C’mon take the step
And pick up the stride

Yes it’s within reach
Just need to jump and grab
There no other moment than this one
Where there is a full life to be lived

The life lived
Is a string of memories
I am making a necklace
Will not miss a single pearl
