Often we stopped at the coffee shop
That from our school was just a hop
We lazed around till late in the day
Afternoon came and we sent away
We giggled at nerds within the class
oops the assembly, missed the mass
A passing mate knowingly grins
we knew for sure we were wins
once we goofed through a football match
The referee and players blew their hatch
We'd fallen in love the day we met
knew for sure love wouldn't ever set
you to the rest room, I stood outside
friends when jeered I just shied
marveled I at your gleaming eyes
At auburn curls and your ties
smiled you once, my gloom was gone
scented spring and refreshed my morn
The romance took us on apace
Never a moment of doubtful trace
There by the brook you looked at me,
We bloomed beside the willow tree.
You wanted us to live in suburbs
grow our veggies, and some herbs
Those were heady, breathless times.
Ring forever not the bells an chimes
Like all things else; dreams too cease.
After the thaw the foreseeable freeze
And then, a proposal inevitably came.
Flurry of gatherings, missed my name.
I saunter alone the whole day long,
vain an depressed, tried to be strong
tried to break from the weight of yolks
an tried to befriend some other folks
even you saw me with different eyes
seemed unconcerned with my sighs
you found someone better than me
I wish that you could've set me free
