Firdaus Parvez

Age of Time

like a little brook we giggled over smooth rocks, fresh in the woods not aware of the river we’d become or the turbulent seas we’d spill into, brimming with life, drunk on laughter, so careless, so carefree . . . but then, we were young

where are you now
my dearest friend
gone too soon
do you soar galaxies
bathing in stardust
