Maybe if I write happy things...I'll be less sad
I'll write about the moon and the dazzling stars
Or the brightest star we see everyday
Maybe I could write about long walks on the beach
Wouldn't that be nice?
But everything reminds me of you.
On our first date I told you that you outshine all the stars in the world.
On the first day I saw you, after a week of being apart...
I said if I need something blinding,
I can just look at your smiles.
On the day I fell the hardest I had ever fallen,
We had our toes buried in the sand.
Warm water coming close as we laughed trying to command it to halt.
We were just children in love.
We thought everything would last
And now when I take walks I imagine I hear
you laughing as waves crash against each other.
