Nothing Lasts Forever
Let me remember the simple moments in life. The unwarranted laughter. The touch of a loved ones embrace. Let me reminisce on all I took for granted. The gatherings with friends. The learning opportunities at work. I miss the freedom of the past. Walking in a dark alley in a foreign Italian city, with rain drops bouncing off my hair. Carelessly, touching objects in the Dubai bazaar. What treasures laid at the touch of my fingers, yet I failed to memorize them. Let me tell you what I would do now, if not for this pandemic. The bottles of wine I would cheer to your existence. The number of times I would kiss your forehead. Let me tell you what I will never forget. The beauty of our world and the scenery I witnessed, in Corsica, Taiwan and my own backyard. I wonder if I too, live in someone’s nostalgia? Do you want me to tell you something...Did I not tell you, nothing last...
