The sky, I swear, was bluer then,76Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUWfmdsJNQV
Or perhaps that’s how I choose to remember—76Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOw3H9Kekhg
Those were days when trains were always late,76Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy0lxKVlMY9
And dreams often missed their stop.
We spoke in promises, never in plans,76Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPcJnLjAHjq
Etched our hopes in chalk along quiet streets,76Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAWIMHUhItp
And laughed as though the world76Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ25USb5MCyG
Were made entirely of summer evenings.
Our hearts, unburdened,76Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkJRVYkKqKu
Knew love without disclaimers,76Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzVOghMafSb
And sorrow came unnamed,76Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJs3caVe0xy
Gentle in its arrival.
We lived between the chime of bells76Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzBB8umADYm
And the hush of cafés,76Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8VLtbQJVts
Where aspirations steamed76Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvfK4DOj1bt
From mugs held too long, too tightly.
Every goodbye felt temporary,76Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyc5tlQPwzR
Every friendship, a forever,76Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcy0I2B8sMB
And each kiss76Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjBB44IlEXV
A tiny rebellion against the ticking clock.
But like rain slipping from forgotten rooftops,76Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNT8Vh0FZke
Those moments faded—76Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrDbwXS84CT
Not vanished,76Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaw45IFtXg2
Only softened by time’s patient hands.
That was youth.76Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEbvjkDSONn
Not merely the brightness of age,76Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡshGjVgjItk
But the ache of becoming—76Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWBFnQoy5cL
The quiet pain of growing into ourselves.
