Barely legal then,
naughty, wild, completely insane.
college and studies,
goofing with buddies,
part-time work,
partying hard,
smoke-booze-dope,
always broke,
life was a dream,
so was ‘HIM’
Boy next-door,
nice but poor,
tall, dark, handsome,
his smile…..winsome,
stolen looks,
behind library books,
life’s first crush,
God!! what a rush,
No facebook those times
yet communicating through eyes
Finally, out on a date,
not just fun but GREAT!!!
short of money,
ordered for his honey,
fries and coke,
sipping together…masterstroke!!!
movie in some fancy hall,
story? nope … can’t recall,
hand-in-hand, bending low,
drinking each other real slow.
yet we made no promises together
after some-time, stopped seeing each-other
different background or separate career path
no idea actually why we fell apart
Wish it had worked in a happily ever-after
home, husband, babies, love and laughter
Successful self but lost wonderful ‘We’
like a mansion built-on innocent felled-tree!
