THE WAY THINGS USED TO BE

TULSA, OKLAHOMA; 1966

" just because i let you go, doesn't mean i wanted to. "

" but we won't forget each other right? "

" maybe our paths will cross again. "

" then i'll tell you how desperately in love i was."

where a simple girl and a rough boy
find themselves in love,
the type of love people like them wouldn't expect,
but young teenagers find out that sometimes,
life isn't fair, and people come and go
so they are forced to see,
if their love can last the test of time,
and if they don't forget in the meantime.

( SE HINTON'S 1971 "THAT WAS THEN THIS IS NOW" )
