In Another Lifetime

Edyth Grace

To an old friend, wherever you are.......

In another lifetime,

Where the skies are plastered

With soft pinks and blues

and golden hues

And the grass, softer than

your skin I once caressed.

In another lifetime,

where the air hums the lyrics

of the song, we would've remembered

And your fingers would've fit mine

like the stars aligning

in some perfect, forgotten sky.

In another lifetime,

the clocks would slow their hands,

giving us endless moments—

no rush, no regret,

just the gentle unfolding

of a story written in your eyes.

In another lifetime,

we would've danced barefoot in the rain

without fear of the lightning—

or the goodbye.

And maybe, just maybe,

your heart would ache

exactly the same way

mine still does.

In another lifetime,

where dreams remember

what reality forgets—

I’ll find you.

And maybe one day,

we’ll stay.
