We'll Always Have Paris


 "We'll always have Paris"...
Bogart line from Casablanca...
About a memory that will always be there 
Despite star-crossed lovers having to say goodbye...
It means
We will always remember Paris...
Even if Paris were to no longer exist...
It doesn't mean
We will always be together...
It doesn't mean
We won't move on...
It doesn't mean
Happily ever after...
It doesn't mean
Till death do us part...
A scene in a movie...
A moment in time...
Ephemeral...
Fleeting...
Isolated on the timeline...
Tragic...
Bittersweet...
But also, irreconcilably,
Over...
The future to be haunted
By lingering memories...
