You were thirteen, with bright green eyes, and freckles in your crooked smile
Brown hair that curls around your ears
And your hands were soft, gentle
Just what I needed
At the time.

I'm fifteen now, with sea-green eyes, and long blonde hair that falls around my face in choppy lengths
My hands shake, and my eyes are always empty
Sometimes my smile isn't real
All I know is
Right now, you aren't the one for me.

I'll be sixteen
In a month or two, I don't know
You're sixteen now, have been
For five days
And some hours.
You changed

There's that word I hate again
Change.

Sometimes change is good
Sometimes it's bad
Sometimes it's in the middle
