Without a goodbye

A/N

Remember the world of your youth...the people of your past, the ones who quietly became your "once upon a time"?

Yeah, me too

    Sometimes the memories are hard, though

  • No goodbyes, just rites of passage & memories to warm, comfort & renew tender longings when new chapters begin to whelm.
