In My Life

In My Life
there are places
and people 
that stand out
to me
Like precious
souvenirs
tucked
away in different
compartments
in my mind

Some friends
and family
members
are living
while
others
have gone
on to the
great
spirit in the
sky

The time
spent
and 
memories developed
has spiritually
and emotionally
made me 
a wealthy
man
Life experiences
have no price tag

Having known
you
even
though
you have
come and
gone
in different
periods
of my
life
is 
a 
relationship
I will
always
treasure

I know
at times
we thought
we would
eternally
connect
and I think
we have
Just not
in the way
we could
have envisioned
and
Maybe 
that is the 
very reason
we still
communicate

Regardless 
In My Life
and death
I will
always have you
