The sky, I swear, was bluer then,50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZDG2yCpUXY
Or perhaps that’s how I choose to remember—50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvSh3HWZxtu
Those were days when trains were always late,50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡalaYkK4LJY
And dreams often missed their stop.
We spoke in promises, never in plans,50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKzzk0bkzLA
Etched our hopes in chalk along quiet streets,50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNgdRw28oi8
And laughed as though the world50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbODA9a2Rdw
Were made entirely of summer evenings.
Our hearts, unburdened,50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKpG0GpIXSI
Knew love without disclaimers,50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdSyBflvSt9
And sorrow came unnamed,50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCXGuDYvG3d
Gentle in its arrival.
We lived between the chime of bells50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLqLfsDNE1O
And the hush of cafés,50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxjKhd8KARZ
Where aspirations steamed50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8EpdijZs8U
From mugs held too long, too tightly.
Every goodbye felt temporary,50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXFZrm9cKN3
Every friendship, a forever,50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1eyYeaaKNT
And each kiss50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUwcPW8s3KK
A tiny rebellion against the ticking clock.
But like rain slipping from forgotten rooftops,50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg43aU0PmwX
Those moments faded—50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7d050XWdi5
Not vanished,50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVg00uqX4c2
Only softened by time’s patient hands.
That was youth.50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNeLmsv9PU0
Not merely the brightness of age,50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrCz6tzINYf
But the ache of becoming—50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZbW3bqWNOX
The quiet pain of growing into ourselves.
