A Million Stitches
A million stitches! A million memories…
Jumping on the puddle, solving puzzles.
Did that make sense?
That one lone friend, holding hands,
Walking in the garden,
Picking flowers, lucid and fragrant.
Running after each other,
Hiding in unknown places with no fear.
Did that make sense?
Our childhoods are fragments of memories…
When you stitch them together, with one another…
It all makes sense!
