Once Upon a Time: A Celebration of Love

In golden hues beneath the streetlights’ glow,
I found your shape, a memory divine.
Once upon a time, we soared, entwined,
As whispers softly through the night would flow.
Though lost in youth, we rose above our woe,
With every shared word and summer’s sign,
You loved me more than anyone, a line
Of truth that still sings sweetly from below.
I wish I could have known to hold on tight,
For forever danced on fragile threads of fate,
Yet every moment counts, each spark ignites.
A tapestry of love, no room for spite,
Once I was something to you, a mate,
A heart, a winding road, a shining light.
