i remember how

i remember how
you used to call me
to tell me little things
show me your haircut
or just to be on the phone

i remember how
in the morning
you spend your time
visiting your friends
and saying good morning

i remember how
at the end of the day
i would come to your locker
organize it for you
and give you a hug

i remember how
you asked for a picture
but i was too shy
but you insisted
i was still too shy

i remember how
i would see you in the halls
and you would see me
and smile
and i would smile back

i remember how
i told you i liked you
and you said
you were sorry
and i said me too

i remember how
now i leave my class
thirty seconds later
because then i know
i wont bump into you

i remember how
bad my heart hurt
trying to erase you
but somehow you stick
to everything i do

i remember how
you liked a girl
and asked me for advice
i was happy for you
even if you were happy without me

i remember how
yesterday we made eye contact
you looked away
and i looked down
i close my locker and walked away

i remember how
my feelings
ruined a great friendship
and even now
im still sorry
