That old couch you grew up on, broken down from the years.
An old handkerchief, used to wipe away sweat and tears.
That doll you held as a child, something so dear to you, when you were still so sweet and mild.
A season you rely on, like the spring when it comes every year.
A friend you can cry on, that sheds away every fear.
A parent you can call, when youβre just tired of it all.
A song that stays in your heart. A thread that strings life together. It is the feeling of something that stays, the beauty of realizing the reliability of forever.
In my sentimentality, Iβve felt the full vitality, of absolute inner joy.
And now I see you, and you see me too, and I think I see a life, where I grow old with you.
