NaPoWriMo #25

4/26: Posting this under yesterday's date.

Untitled

1.
It was July and Paris
and a place where the sunshine

striped the walls and floor
of every cafe we walked into.

2.
So you said yes:
promises whispered
and never kept.

3.
I breathe harder when
I remember July, full of

beautiful lies and
a loud town.

(My third titling problem this month. I usually don't have trouble with titles...what's wrong with me?)
