<\/p>\n\n\n\n

That stadium where we first met.
Just you and me and a thousand other people.
Fate or luck.
Doesn’t matter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

That bookshop where you found me.
Three days later.
Enthralled by pages.
By then, enthralled by you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Those walls that heard us laugh.
Never getting tired of our conversations
Gave us a place to just be.
I swear\u2014just those four walls\u2014set me free.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A thousand new strangers.
Many other enchanted readers.
Few more first conversations.
The trace of you and me, long gone.
But I still call them all.
Our places<\/p>\n\n\n\n
