When we were young

Do you remember when we were young?
When we talked like nothing was wrong
I could tell you everything
And you'd tell me it all
The days where we worried about nothing
And we were never bored

But we grew older
And the worries of life started to flood in
Suddenly time caught up to us
And I started to miss you more

Through our teens we tried to keep in touch
But school kept getting in the middle of us
So in the end we smiled as we walked passed
It was hard being in a different class

Each night after school I sat on my bed and thought to message you
I never did because I was scared too
You moved on with your life
And I should too
But I confess
I really missed you

I watched from afar as you started to grow
Into a guy that I now didn't know
So soon I started to miss your glaze
Because I knew if our eyes met I'd want you to stay
So I walked on like we'd never met

But in the end it was all too much
I needed you in my life because you brighten it up
So I messaged you
With hope in my eyes
Meet me at our tree in five ?

I left my house too scared to see the reply
I'd just wait to see if he'd arrive
And when I saw him walk to me
The smile on my face grew
It made me feel like this messed up world
Did have something to prove

It had been a 3 years
But we chatted like we never stopped
Only taking little breaths in between words
As we were scared we would have to stop
Words cane flooding out
Like dam that had burst
