the last summer

something can be said 
about a love so young
that it never had a chance
yet was all too real just the same. 

a precursor to life's unfairness,
perhaps, a final lesson before adulthood,
that things sometimes end,
but life must continue on. 

no defining point exists
upon which a love lost
ceases being what-could-have-been
and becomes what once was. 

time passes, people heal,
and bittersweet memories of
your time together are sealed
for eternity in your memory.
