14 yrs.

on the spot

boy

i was so young

i didn't know much about love

all i knew

was you

you helped me up

when i was knee deep in my fall

you heard me through that tunnel

you heard my call

and now i'm begging you

i'm still not over you

i still stress myself

wondering if you love me too

but i guess

i'll keep repeating these words

over

and

over again

i was 14 yrs old when i loved you

it's been too long since i left you

now all i think about

all i think about are those clear nights

you and i

both looking up 

into the sky

never knowing we were in love

never knowing why

just knew it was

it had to be

well now it has to work

this plan of mine

i need you to hear me out

i'm not anymore

i'm not

me

anymore

maybe we were right

initially

to prevent a fight

i would say i never wanted to see you again

that only made it worse

made me worse

i never knew

love could do this to me

never knew it would happen

this way

but now 

at night

i just continue 

in my daze

transfixed in a wall

recalling it all

memories

fade over time

at least ours faded with a smile
