We were so young

What did we honestly think we knew

About love

I look at kids that age now

Scoff at their love

That I feel is make believe

But were we not

That same way

Did we not think

We had it all

We were so young

But happy nevertheless

And happiness is all you need

For awhile

And then those feelings you had

That you thought would never go away

Do

And you’re not quite sure where you find yourself anymore

You want that feeling of safety

With no emotions attached

But sometimes we just collide into each other

To have that feeling again

And sometimes we feel emotion

But as soon as it’s felt

It recedes again

As it always does

After it did that first time that love is no longer felt

I am not void of love for you

But it has changed form

Became not what it once was

And one day your neverending supply of it

Always seeming to be there

Will go away

I know this

I don’t deserve all these chances I’ve been given

Those many times I’ve fucked up

And when that supply is gone

I will either be ok with it

Or hate myself for what I didn’t see

Time will be the judge of that

For now

We live

With the colliding

And receding
