Remember.

Remember that time we sat by the water?

We talked about all the good times, and those that could’ve been better

The crunch of each chip that we tossed in our mouth

Was lost in the wonders of what we were talking about

Remember our laughter that grew louder by the minute?

Joke after joke that our parents found explicit

The glow of the moon that seemed to keep us alive

We didn’t realize, we had been sitting there since five

Remember how much our cheeks hurt from smiling?

Our eyes became watery, from crying

And we could not walk straight for an hour after that

So till we could, on the hammocks we sat

Remember what you said when it was time to say goodbye?

“I’ll be back soon, and that is not a lie.”

Forever in my heart, I will hold you to that

And all I can do till then, is remember our chat
