We did not spend those mornings walking together alone on that deserted beach. We did not spend those evenings lying together in front of that open fire.
Those days never happened.
We did not find romance, because we live in a world where romance cannot happen, because we are not the romantic kind and we do not live in an age of romance.
We were never lovers, because these are not times for lovers.
We had only a sexual relationship because that is the only language we are allowed to use; those softly-spoken words of love are not for people like us. They are not our words; it is not our language and not our time.
