Memories of childhood so fleeting
Parents' laughter still repeating
Their love a guiding light
Lost too soon in the night
Their voices a distant echo
In the silence I'm left to let go
Tears fall for what's been lost
In the void my heart's accost
Photos fade faces blur
Their absence a silent stir
In the quiet I feel their presence
In my heart's enduring essence
Gone but never truly gone
Their love an eternal song
In the stars I see their grace
In memories I find my place
