a box of memories

You know honey

we never meant to part

just differences of the heart

you went to college,i went to war

you were always the girl next door

we dated all through high school

you were a cheerleader

and i was the star quarterback

you were my first kiss

my first time 

you are all the memories

that dwell in my mind

i still have your ring,

and all the other memories,

you left behind.and i hope 

that i'm a sweet memory in your mind...

Sad yet satisfying. Really the tale of young love here. Most of the time we hope it to last forever even though it usually never works out like that.

[andrew mitchell]

what could have been, that is the question. funny how things turn out, a reflective write on a moment precious and innocent and that first experience of love.

oh boy! one works hard to get over such things of the heart eh!? those deep overwhelming loves ...destined to hurt ..but who would exchange the experience for a drab life without them ;) lots of Dear John's out there ... pretty sad :(
