I don't think she'd understood
what I meant,
when I said
Those three words.
Sometimes..
neither did I.
I remember being in the hospital a lot.
My brother
would bring my laptop
I'd try to hide the fact I was in care.
But somehow..
she'd
always
find
I don't think she ever believed her name to be an endearing one.
And, I doubt she thought, considered, understood...
How I felt about her.
But that's fine.
I kind of want her to walk away.
Freedom in hand.
These words, might, on a later date, impact a life.
Or two.
I can't be sure how many.
It's not important.
I remember the morning it happened.
It was not a quiet affair.
"Jon! There's this girl-"
and it went from there...
First, it was a few steps to
Are we
all
just children
Pretending we
never
grew up?
Perhaps...
but
what if
Life tells
us
to become
Everything we
loved
turned from
Simple to
complex,
a new day bearing new fruit.
