That arches through the years,
Revisiting in memory,
Dreams we both held dear.
A time when we built castles,
As we ambled in the rain,
Sketching dreams in vapor,
On life’s windowpane.
Our fancies lived a moment,
The bubbles soon would burst,
Each would soon face heartache,
Each would experience hurt.
Can we bridge the distance?
Can a way be found,
To breach the years between us?
Can we find common ground?
A time that we remember,
Like it was yesterday,
Could link us to the present
If love could have its way.
