Letter 1

I wonder, when will you realize?
This is our most glamorous period of life

Just in time, you are still young and 23

The way to your home will remain the same
But passersby will come and go as they please
Like I did

Back when you were almost 21
Streetlights and the faint smell of burnt rubber
Accompanied us on those cold nights of walking me home

Hand in hand, we savoured each moment
Small talks with a whole lot of repeating sentences

Making wishes to go to bars near my house
‘Till now, I haven't gone there

You weren't allowed

Pity that I had to leave
But you will find a better girl than me

I don't believe in heavenly beings and alternate universe
If I missed a great love in this lifetime
Then it's my fate not to have it

I met you at '19
But you will stay in my heart
As the college boy, a year older than me, aged 20
