My dear,

To peel back the layers of time.

Just to see the way you first looked at me.

The first touch,

The first kiss.

The thought of us being together is a dream

that I never want to wake from.

The memories will never fade,

But the butterflies slowly twist and turn

into a never-ending haze.

Slowly forgetting what it was like to be in your arms.

The comfort that I once felt,

has completely vanished.

With a heavy heart

I would say that it’s fading.

The love we once had

is obscured and forgotten.

Our youth is dwindling,

My darling.

Along with the fire and passion

we once had.
