One of my fondest memories was when
you took my hands into your own and you kissed me
And you kissed me again
In that bathroom stall
And our teeth clashed and i didn't care
And your headphones were playing Girl in Red's Bad Idea
And my bag was covering my feet but that didn't matter
Cause people could hear our giggles from outside
And you looked at me with such fondness
and gave me that card that said
i love you
Like the time i gave you that ring and we kissed at the park
And my friends filmed us
And i gave you that teddy bear and we ate ice cream
And i called you a grandpa for your choice
'Cause only grandpas eat after eight
And i took that picture of you with the bear in your hand
i loved that picture so much
For so long
Or when i was waiting for my mom and you could've gone home
But you waited with me until your hands turned blue
So i told you to look after yourself and i held them
But it didn't help 'cause mine were cold too
And that time we kissed and my lipstick smeared everywhere
So i applied more
And i kissed you again
Or when we first walked together to get coffee and i held your hand
So awkwardly
But your cheeks tinted pink
And i insisted on paying
or when we made out in your room and you had to reply to your mom's message
while in between my knees
and i took a picture of you
all disheveled and pink
Or when you were sick
And i skipped class to go to your house
And i had flowers in my hand
And you thought i 'd gotten lost
So you left the comfort of your room all sick and sniffly
To meet me halfway
And i called you dumb 'cause you could've gotten sicker by going out in the cold like that
And i didn't care when i got sick after i kissed you
and you walked me back
after i told you not to
'cause it was cold
Or our last kiss in the hallway
When i pulled you in by your white shirt
Just as you had to go to class
And i had a free hour
And it was slimy and hasty and in that moment i thought of giving you a better kiss later
Not knowing that night
We'd be going our separate ways.
i wish i could relive those moments
Deeply, i do.
i wonder if you liked them the same as me
Or if you didn't care too much
i wonder if i asked you to start over
To intertwine our paths again
i wonder if you'd say yes
