Looking back

Looking back at the beginning of their love....

I was sitting under the trees,

Staring at the stars,

And I began to think,

And I began to look back.

 

We shared a lot of memories,

You and I,

At that time I felt my heart,

Would never crack.

 

Upon meeting you,

I knew I wanted you,

But I said nothing,

Because you wanted her.

 

We were just friends,

This was good enough for me,

Life was so gentle then,

Like a cat’s sweet purr.

 

You would come over to my house,

With my cousins you knew so well,

Wanting to play D&D with my dad,

But we usually just watched a movie.

 

I sat on the floor,

And you would too,

And you’d try to be mean,

By grabbing the ticklish spot on my knee.

 

When you would leave,

I’d pretend to be happy you were gone,

But deep inside,

I didn’t want you to go.

 

I don’t know what it is,

I’d seen in you,

Or what I still seem to see,

And I don’t think I will ever know.

 

Then I heard your footsteps,

So I opened my eyes,

You asked what was wrong,

And “Nothing” was all I replied.

 

Then you lay down beside me,

Wrapped your arms around me,

And watched the stars,

While lying by my side.
