Eighteen Years Too Late: Echoes of Regrets

Of hearts entwined beneath the sun.
It began in the halls of youth's embrace,
Where two souls met, face to face.

Countdown To Clone Day, Rubbish Writing
Granules of recollection rub like salt 
Flailing in the fog of seven years ago
Deafened by incessant frog cries
Vines dangling began attaching to each other 
Drying river stagnated, slime slippery with algae 
Vigorous tree growth stooped...

Today, I was determined to fly a kite;
There was plenty of wind with no clouds in sight.

Burdened by memories, that you've brought to my dreams
