The last time you kissed me, I tasted all our time together

The last time you kissed me, I tasted all our time together and didn’t regret a second. There’s something special in recognizing even something brief can be powerful. Even something brief can be life-changing. You made an indelible impression on me. You reminded me to take chances. With myself, with other people. You reminded me that not everything has to go according to plan. You reminded me that it’s okay to accept what comes and love it every second it's here. Sure, you weren’t my forever. But you were my then. You were my ‘at one time.’ And goodness, how beautiful it was.
