.17th December 2002.
I need to get out of me some emotions
and alot of words, I don't really care if it has rhythm or verse
so I try to think of what to write
of what to say, of how to make it smooth
and what I see in my mind's eye is love
a pair of eyes that I'll never forget
but that I'll never be able to see again...
ten years is a long time to spend with someone,
to fall in love, so young and so passionately, and so full on,
it was just us, together, and we didn't care about the opinions of anyone, we did what we wanted
we lived, and loved and explored the world and learned
we grew up fast, we had to, we lived in a fast city, in a fast society
we lived the student life, cheap boarding houses
St, Vinnies food vouchers, sometimes going hungry
learning how to cope with boredom, living in relative poverty
in a capitalist money based society
but that didn't bother us, not too much -
we had eachother, and at the time that was enough
and for a long time, i'm sure we were happy...
still, we were just teenagers
and i guess, at some stage it was inevitable that at some stage
we would discover drugs,
the begginning of the end for us...
