Things Change
We met in grade school.
We had a fling at the age of 12.
Two weeks, we lasted,
talking on the phone every night.
School days passed, as so did years.
We always knew each other.
I'd pass him in the hall way,
then one year we shared home room.
Graduation came, he left for summer.
We kept in touch upon the months.
Then he returned from his kingdom,
I welcomed him whole heartedly home.
It started out with holding hands,
silly glances, sly smiles.
We grew together for 3 months,
until he had to leave again.
Months passed, as he stood lonley.
Ever waiting for me.
He returned once again to his kingdom.
Where once again, we stood, holding hands.
The love grew stronger.
The voices we raised were silly I know.
But we didn't know any better.
We were young and foolish then.
Then finaly the night came.
Where once again I knew he'd have to leave.
This time, we'd stay together.
We'd have a life, as soon as I left my kingdom.
3 months passed, and love faded.
To the other woman I could not compete.
The loud voices grew softer.
Choked with tears, rightous jealousy.
He left me. And I stood lonley.
Now 10 months have passed.
There I stood, ever waiting,
til he would finally take me back.
If I could take it all back...
I know now that I would.
10 months filled with power.
He can still bring me to tears.
Ever waiting for an apology.
Passing months still bring pain.
We knew each other since grade school.
Now I know nothing about him...
Funny how things change.
