i see none of those times mattered to you. staying up all night watching the starts on that old swingset you had in your backyard. it always squeaked. the neighbors got pissed. that was fun.
our best sport was ruining others lives, because ours weren't good enough. i see you still enjoy doing that.
you told me you'd never do drugs like those kids down the street did. that was a lie; you're insane now.
we were misunderstood because we didn't let anyone get to know us. it wasnt the best feeling but it made me feel closer to you. we WERE close. we knew everything.
i lied to all of my friends because of you. it hurts, now. really.
my parents didn't know what to think of me and you. thats why i couldn't see you. and you couldn't see me. but we saw eachother anyway.
and that old man we always laughed at because he sat alone on that broken couch on his porch, yelling at us. he never moved from there in the day. we never knew what he did at night.
i loved you. really. and i think thats all i ever knew. loving you. we were rulers of that abandoned shed on that hill with all the daffodils. and everything was whole with our two best friends.
we never acted like we were in love but everyone said when we did they knew it was true. just the way you could always make me laugh just by saying the littlest things. we laughed together in walmart at that girl in the ad because she looked like that person we knew way back when.
and you liked me even though i wasn't the best looking or the smartest.
i didn't think we'd last forever but i didnt think you'd leave me the way you did.
