simplicity.

simple things—

walking out on sunset to meet you,

the crunch of gravel on our feet,

creaks of chains on swings,

ice cream for fifty cents.

sitting on a rusty blue bench

until the sky fades into black

going back home,

waiting for tomorrow.

the memories blurring at the edges,

getting harder to hold on to.

I thought they would last forever

but Death took it all away

and I miss you more than you know,

these simple nights with you and I.

for all these things I would trade—

the world.
