5.17 Young Together

We were young together. Growing up on shores of green. Chasing rainbows and twirling in the rain. Laughing through the summers and standing under twinkling stars.

Bonfires late at night and early morning chats. Waving as we drove new roads, tassels swinging as we saw achievements.  

Happy days and anxious ones, we did them all together.

Standing by each other’s side. Hands joined open new doors. New lives added, growing, growing.

Filling boxes, watching goodbyes. Hiding keepsakes away, we saw it all go by.

The days now old, minds only sharp. Bodies tired but remember—when we were young together.
