You laughed with mango ice cream lips
We ran through streets with sun-kissed skips
Your voice like wind through window screens
August light behind your jeans
I almost texted you last night
"Remember that café on the right?"
But then I smiled and let it be
Some memories are meant to breathe
I thought I’d miss you with more pain
But all that’s left is sun and rain
You were a chapter, sweet and done
Like golden hours when we had fun
This is the text I never sent
A summer song that came and went
No broken hearts, no burning tears
Just echoes of our laughing years
I loved you in a warm July
With ice cream melts and firefly skies
No need to send, no need to mend
Just thank you — from this quiet end
We danced to beats from passing cars
Our playlist now lives in the stars
You liked your coffee way too sweet
I never told you — but that was neat
I saw your photo yesterday
New haircut, same old sideways face
I didn’t type, I didn’t call
I just remembered — and that was all
Not every love is made to stay
Some only bloom for summer days
You were the spark I didn’t keep
But still, you light up parts of me
This is the text I never sent
A breeze from when we used to blend
No bitter words, no need to cry
Just peace beneath a lemon sky
I loved you then, and that was real
But time moves on and helps me heal
No need to send, no need to end
Just waving from around the bend
They say love fades — maybe that’s true
But golden hours still hold you
Not with longing, not with ache
But with a smile, for old times’ sake
This is the text I never sent
And maybe now I’m glad it went
Unsaid, but not undone or lost
Just written in the summer dust
I loved you in a fleeting hue
And maybe once — you loved me too
So here’s to us, without regret
A memory I won’t forget
