We Were Giants

sun setting
touching tops
of mountains.
Their shadows
Stretching
Miles longer than they are tall.
Do you remember
When we were in love
With laughing?
Both giddy
And dancing
tip toe
On tops of sleeping titans.
We were so young.
Watching our shadows stretch
Across the valley floor,
We danced
And sung songs
And drank up the sun til drunk.
We didn’t care,
We were giants.
