btw you will miss this in 5 or 10 years. memory will smooth these circumstances down like a river stone, and you will find yourself longing for a shade of light or a moment of this particular innocence. you don't know about what happens next, and one day that will be the most alluring thing of all. don't leave it all for nostalgia. have a nice night now, whatever night it happens to be.

Nostalgia says: go back.                                                           Wasn’t it nice?             Back then?                                                            Weren’t there                         Flowers?         Growing wild?                     At the edge of our pen?
