THOSE TIMES
I was thinking about those years
so long ago, back when we were
so young, so reckless
with our hearts, with our emotions
and we fell so hard in love
and nothing seemed to matter
as long as we were together
and how happy we were then.
Before reality set in
and we had to concentrate on
bills, mortgages, and working
harder and harder just
to get ahead.
I was thinking about that time
when none of that matter.
That time when all that mattered
was that we were together.
And I realized that those
were the happiest years of my life.
Those times when nothing mattered
as long as we were together.
