Fleeting Moments

She bumped into him at a crowded subway station, spilling coffee on his shirt.

He laughed instead of getting angry. That accident became their inside joke. They explored hidden

rooftops where the city lights looked like fallen stars. She taught him to dance in the rain.

He showed her how to find silence in chaos. Then one evening, she confessed something

that shattered everything. She was moving across the world in two weeks, a plan made long

before they met. Their last night together felt like breathing underwater, beautiful but impossible

to sustain. He didn't ask her to stay. She didn't ask him to wait.

Sometimes love isn't about holding on.
