simple moments are never all that straitforward
you and i - we had fun - the wind in our hair
the ways your eyes sparkled at things uncertain
it takes years for most people to cycle through all these emotions
we had highs - we saw lows - we did things i won't disclose
we fell from grace long ago - don't let the wind leave your sails
struggles are the things that make us stronger
a spark set our hearts ablaze - only to flicker into a phase
your smile is contagious and touched my soul
but i now realize it is time for me to go
with one look you said a thousand words
i won't sweep those moments from the floor
please believe me when i say
i'm not leaving i'm just walking away
