I was packing my things for a trip with a friend
when I dropped my wallet and saw that long-forgotten photo of us.
My legs started shaking, and I almost had a panic attack.
Isn't it funny how I once thought you'd be mine for eternity,
only for you to become a distant memory?
The universe keeps dropping me signs everywhere I go.
I had almost forgotten about you.
And then, on that trip,
I caught the scent of your perfume in the air on a sunny day.
It reminded me of us in July and
how freeing it felt to hold you in my arms,
to be vulnerable without fear of judgment. ...
