Do you remember when we'd drive down the same old roads
in the same old clothes
that we wore yesterday
thinking that this moment will never end
but it did.
We didn't really understand the complexities of life
remember that we were just kids
just kids in love
in a big world
where it felt like anything was possible.
That road ended
and we found ourselves in different homes
in the arms of others
yet somehow there was always this connection.
I remember when
we used to drive
and then you used to cry
you used to cry into my shoulder and swear that no one would ever love you
but I did.
What ever happened to back then
?
I remember your eyes used to twinkle
when I called you beautiful
even thought you weren't sure you'd ever believe it
but I hope I helped you
like a bookmark.
I hope I showed you everything you were worth
I showed you your place
and I hope
I hope
I hope
that this chapter in your life is a cherished one.
I hope
when I see you
And ask if we can at least be friends
you feel awkward
but I see your eyes twinkle once again
because I know that you
remember when.
