And it's hard to believe, but it was not too long ago when the sun still shown and the days were long. When it was late we used to walk down these streets, and we could see every star above us, and I didn't shiver so intently under the night sky. I don't know if it's because it's fall or if it's because your not there beside me but it's just unbearably cold. We used to be alive those nights, every breath we took was like a breath of adventure and we always breathed deeper because we couldn't stop.
And when you exhaled it was so contagious, I swear I could feel life dancing on my finger tips. Your eyes were wild and your heart was always so warm, but you were always a bit too out of reach. Your walk, always a step ahead of mine, waiting for me to catch up, but I was never fast enough. Yet you always came home with me and and asked to stay longer because I think you knew it was where you belonged. I let you go like a paper plane, effortlessly and softly, a glimpse of a dream come and gone. And some days I am reminded of those nights and some nights I long for those days, but most of the time I just don't remember. I know ill lose you and find you in some other person, and I know ill lose myself just as much and find me in another too.
