Checkered

I tried to regain whatever it is that remained from the shattered glasses that broke the stillness of that night. I tried to smile again and forget about everything that makes this heart go into a place where butterflies flutter in the breeze. I tried to forget about that day when the rain didn't stop falling just when you decided not to come. Time will pass. The white statues by the park will crumble but not the memories of the walks we have spent there. Time will pass. I wish our memories would too.
