And as you walk through these familiar streets, 
You notice small details you used to overlook:
The worn-out benches where people rest, 


The graffiti that boldly splashes stories;
The fleeting smiles of passing strangers…
Each moment feels so much more precious-


Each breath a gift, not to be taken for granted.
You accept that endings are part of the journey;
Finding a truth that keeps you moving forward.

I can relate to every word of your poem - and I agree with Bramwell it is a "good poem" it flows easily off the tongue - there are no wasted words - and it has a depth of meaning.

RBK thank you for this. Like Eduardo before you, you have unknowingly planted an idea in my head for which I am grateful.
