Reminiscing...

When you and I were...
and everything in between
I used to follow you when you'd run home to mommy
with me hiding behind the tree
but you always saw me, yes you did!
and I'd laugh myself silly for what seemed like eternity..
you opened the door to your Gingerbread House
and we'd eat cookies and candies till late
you always offered me more but I also always refused
(because mommy told me too much sweets make ants crawl
in my mouth while I sleep)

I remember....
doodling stick figures of you and me
holding hands, I was the mommy and you were the daddy
Then we'd fight over who made the best letter "B"
That was the minute you said you'd marry me and no one else...

I loved you eversince.

Now we're all grown up
you wouldn't even look at me
I thought maybe you suffered from a memory loss
and forgot that you loved me.

But you need no reminder at all, now I know
you remember me but not the feelings long ago
The stick figures were just figures drawn by a child's hand
and the promise was just a seashell the wave carried away from the sand

My tears have fallen, from eyelashes to cheeks,
oh, how the world changed then!
My world at least.

but still i find my way to my thorn covered bed
and watch the world's light dim...
there's something solitary about all of this, i realize...
...
....
.....

our love story's ending had been decided.....
and i've accepted it..
