We lit a fire within us

Torched that old…nothing town

Watched as the flames

Engulfed every last mistake

we ever made.

Leaving only the memories

But, even they are hard

To find.

Buried deep below the

Piles of ash

And clouds of smoke

Of who we used to be

My mind never once thought

I’d be able to see with

Such clarity.

We’ve never taken the time

To say…

But, these are our Perfect days
