The sky, I swear, was bluer then,169Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGXpR1adNfF
Or perhaps that’s how I choose to remember—169Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYkL9QjU0Ck
Those were days when trains were always late,169Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4Y3ZezpOYG
And dreams often missed their stop.
We spoke in promises, never in plans,169Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSMt7yD1pdB
Etched our hopes in chalk along quiet streets,169Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe5GoAfmeds
And laughed as though the world169Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe9cELxl3CT
Were made entirely of summer evenings.
Our hearts, unburdened,169Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbOmp0v3r2B
Knew love without disclaimers,169Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6s98xFjpyT
And sorrow came unnamed,169Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNcrpTv2Zqb
Gentle in its arrival.
We lived between the chime of bells169Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWdJo9eHSN7
And the hush of cafés,169Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNCmj7bN0LG
Where aspirations steamed169Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0lijpQWJm7
From mugs held too long, too tightly.
Every goodbye felt temporary,169Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmSDuyCd2PW
Every friendship, a forever,169Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqZRgJn0fyb
And each kiss169Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT8YWCtvmcT
A tiny rebellion against the ticking clock.
But like rain slipping from forgotten rooftops,169Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbpJUYYzXSE
Those moments faded—169Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKZ6M3tmScY
Not vanished,169Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0XRsP0LdMF
Only softened by time’s patient hands.
That was youth.169Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡekLfJAH0Ok
Not merely the brightness of age,169Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO4sA99HTSb
But the ache of becoming—169Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcucw6wZVPQ
The quiet pain of growing into ourselves.
