do you remember
do you remember
do you remember...
there were
empty stairways of two flights or more
the sweet aroma from the candy store
endless chatter floating free
from laughing people…like you and me
stolen kisses in the afternoon
on a borrowed blanket from another room
we lost all track of minutes past
hoping minutes and kisses would forever last
do you remember...
there were
raindrops falling all around
and we laughed and listened
to the pelting sound
we swallowed kisses like never before
we knew we could use them
there were plenty more
do you remember...
there were
seagulls soaring overhead
as we laid upon our makeshift bed
and the wind was swirling all around
while we laid our grass-stained blanket down
no one mattered except you and me
in our innocent pursuit of feeling free
there was no pain, there were no tears
no looking ahead to the coming years
do you remember?
