Sweet Memories

When we were young,

We would study in the reading room together,

Hang out at cafes with books together,

That was fun-

Sweet memories.

 

We would go to the vending machines,

And buy instant mee at only fifty cents a cup,

And slurp it all up,

That was fun-

Sweet memories.

 

We would study till the wee hours of the night,

Then go out and take a walk at the school running track,

Then climb out of the gate-

That was fun-

Sweet memories.

 

The books with the papers had a smell,

The room with the smell of wood,

Quiet sleepy, quiet sleepy,

And keep each other awake and company.

 

The sweet memories all these years,

Had kept us alive,

When working and worrying about money,

Had a toll on us all-

We depend on these sweet memories.

 

Sweet memories keep us alive,

When we laugh, we love, we live, we pray-

Sweet memories keep us alive,

Yay…

 

How are you, my friend?

Are you happy?

I wish you all the best.

And hope you remember all these sweet memories…
