For the first time

4th of July
Always was filled with memories
Sad ones mostly
Being reminded every year on the same day
Today was different
Today it was calm
No hurt memories full my head
No family drama coming to light
No protecting anyone from the fireworks
But to sit on my car
To look to my side and see E
To just be with him watching the fireworks
The nice breeze the quiet moments
The night sky being filled with lights
Your hand in mine
For the first time I got to enjoy this day
For the first time no memories filled my head
For the first time I had fun
I enjoyed myself
I have new memories now
