Analysis of I remember



I had no fear of death
And doubt in reality.

All i feared was to wake up
And seeing the pillow
That used to be yours,
Without a head print.

All i feared, was to miss
Everything we shared
And everything we had
To be only a memory
That fades like darkness at dawn.

What i fear now,
Is for those fears to haunt me
And stare into my eyes
As i go back again
To what i thought was love.
