We lost our simplicity. We lost it somewhere on the beach, in the parking lot, on the grass, in the cracks of the sidewalk, or in one of the sticky booths at the pizza place. We spent so much time making plans to do something great- something memorable. We failed to see then that those would become the strongest memories. Just the times we spent planning the rest of our lives.
It was simple then, because all the worries and fears were things to be dealt with in the future. We didn't have to worry about life in those moments, we just lived it. And we didn’t even notice. We look back now and that is what we remember. We remember laughter, smiles, jokes, tears, and secrets… all the things that brought us together for those seconds and minutes and years.
How many times did the sun go down on us before we realized that each time it did so it got closer to being the last time?
