Reflections of the heart

I took the left turn down the street,
Walked pass the shops were we frequented once;
I looked around and I thought I saw a glimpse of you ,
But soon realise that such a thing would be not true;
I turned around and retrace my steps,
I smile as I passed by that shop we loved;
The stupid memories of me and you unconsciously plays in my head.
I wonder how long has it been since I came here after you left?
The things we did, the things we said is all but a memory now.
I put my headphones on to drown out the noise,
But ended up listening to the songs we both sang out loud;
A smile slowly forms on my lips,
Memories of the sound of our tone deaf voices can still be heard.
We laughed out loud not caring a thing about the world,
Acted like love struck teenagers who have fallen in love for the first time.
Walking hand in hand and making promises for the future,
Making memories that seem to last for a life time.
But when did it start falling apart?
Was it me or was you who didn't know what else to do?
A year has pass and yet I still think of you, of us.
The memories still playing in my head as a broken down record,
As I slowly make my way down the busy street;
Thinking of the memories we shared,
Realising that these are but the reflections of the heart.
