The sky, I swear, was bluer then,54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL5z1yr5jqV
Or perhaps that’s how I choose to remember—54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmJ1t0KrmIQ
Those were days when trains were always late,54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjR0Ps64fI9
And dreams often missed their stop.
We spoke in promises, never in plans,54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6iVdEjahME
Etched our hopes in chalk along quiet streets,54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh6FOdC3TpO
And laughed as though the world54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhyLtTm194T
Were made entirely of summer evenings.
Our hearts, unburdened,54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8KmkelEC0w
Knew love without disclaimers,54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtYKBOxzVEW
And sorrow came unnamed,54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbuopCsROrs
Gentle in its arrival.
We lived between the chime of bells54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrsuUeDTRtX
And the hush of cafés,54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyzXUHCVMjk
Where aspirations steamed54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFihm62PiMr
From mugs held too long, too tightly.
Every goodbye felt temporary,54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZzuXoa29by
Every friendship, a forever,54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfdt7PpMhc1
And each kiss54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg8TS7d38Ji
A tiny rebellion against the ticking clock.
But like rain slipping from forgotten rooftops,54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3jnu6pSNxh
Those moments faded—54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN5QFhwWa6V
Not vanished,54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfULObZPdFg
Only softened by time’s patient hands.
That was youth.54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBfFwzi4jiK
Not merely the brightness of age,54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVJXZMP9VED
But the ache of becoming—54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYreOLtYmP7
The quiet pain of growing into ourselves.
