The sky, I swear, was bluer then,90Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡETp1zrcKK1
Or perhaps that’s how I choose to remember—90Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX9zMvWQHSu
Those were days when trains were always late,90Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1D95KmbOtN
And dreams often missed their stop.
We spoke in promises, never in plans,90Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG0estfmEcf
Etched our hopes in chalk along quiet streets,90Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsGpwBXjYv6
And laughed as though the world90Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKRlIaqtFnL
Were made entirely of summer evenings.
Our hearts, unburdened,90Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW0Zzo8RgFh
Knew love without disclaimers,90Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX9Yufe1kw8
And sorrow came unnamed,90Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfiG1AMB4uO
Gentle in its arrival.
We lived between the chime of bells90Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw8tD6pqmGE
And the hush of cafés,90Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPCanAz1LEc
Where aspirations steamed90Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRI5VYs2VJ8
From mugs held too long, too tightly.
Every goodbye felt temporary,90Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ69b8CgdpKx
Every friendship, a forever,90Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh6xlb2beYG
And each kiss90Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhtbWnqxuKn
A tiny rebellion against the ticking clock.
But like rain slipping from forgotten rooftops,90Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAOvqgXEVaM
Those moments faded—90Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDn9dqcANjl
Not vanished,90Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEI1hG1INgI
Only softened by time’s patient hands.
That was youth.90Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgu0hUVoug3
Not merely the brightness of age,90Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5mpMkEq0Bc
But the ache of becoming—90Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmDBeblLbTc
The quiet pain of growing into ourselves.
