pieces of the past

Have you ever unexpectedly discovered something you wrote a long time ago and had completely forgotten about... but then you read it and it's like stepping into a time machine that takes you back to the exact moment you wrote it...
I wrote this long ago in the middle of winter while parked in a Fleet Farm parking lot overcome with emotion, I had to pull over because the smile on my face was so big that I couldn't see...

like a map with a new key
navigating uncharted territory
discovering the world isn't round
or flat
but a geometric replica of your
eyes as the catch
the sunlight
and reflect mine
while the topes of your fingers
trace roads we will
travel
adventures we will have
as we share a laugh
discovering the world is unpredictable
and rewards patience
navigating your eyes like they are
the brightest stars in my sky
like a girl with a
new smile
