I dream that I have found us both again,With spring so many strangers' lives away,And we, so free,Out walking by the sea,With someone else's paper words to say....They took us at the gates of green return,Too lost by then to stop, and ask them why-Do children meet again?Does any trace remain,Along the superhighways of July?
The quote expresses a yearning for reunion and connection amid the passage of time. It creates a vivid image of two people rediscovering their bond in a spring landscape, symbolizing renewal and freedom. The mention of "someone else's paper words" suggests the influence of external voices in their conversation, hinting at the complexities of identity and communication in relationships.
The latter part of the quote raises introspective questions about the nature of memories and the possibility of reconnection. It poses thoughtful inquiries about youthful meetings and the lasting impact of experiences, alluding to the transitory nature of existence as represented by the "superhighways of July." This evokes a sense of nostalgia, loss, and the search for lasting connections in an ever-changing world.
