A Stroll Down Memory Lane

Strangers

I hardly knew you;

A guitarist,

A good singer,

A song writer

And Hannah's current boyfriend,

Was all I knew.

She'd dump you,

I knew it,

So I talked to you after the break up,

You were nothing special at the time,

So,

I moved on.

Didn't talk to you.

 

Becoming Friends

A few months later

When one of Hannah's friends

Was dating on of her ex's

I thought,

*You were one of her ex's

And you were really nice and cute

Why not get to know you?*

We shared random conversations on Facebook.

You were really funny.

So a number was given and texting happened.

 

Best friends

We texted everyday.

We enjoyed each other's company.

We had both needed a good friend to talk to.

And we got along great.

Perhaps a little too great.

 

Falling hard

I found myself liking you more and more

Each day.

Small jealously

When you talked about perhaps liking some new girl.

Secret joy

When she had been taken.

I knew I had a crush on you

And soon enough,

You did too.

But we established

A long distance relationship couldn't be made.

Too far apart,

In age and distance.

The tears that fell

Because of this

Made me realize,

You were making a big impact in my heart.

And I needed you.

 

More than friends

I'm not sure when,

But we started to not care about the things we established.

I met you

And before then,

We both knew how much

We liked each other.

Maybe we'd steal a kiss or two

When we met.

(I wish we did)

Meeting you,

Made me so nervous,

Yet extremely happy.

Heads were rested on shoulders,

Fore heads were kissed,

We became the cutest couple we knew.

Soon we decided this was love.

 

Broken up

Three weeks,

I guess you didn't love me

Like you thought you did.

In fact,

You lied.

Saying you'd never stop loving me,

But you did.

I needed your love,

But now she does.

She needs you,

I need you,

But you only have room in your heart

For one love,

And that's her.

I wish you had waited,

Till you could see me;

Maybe there's a feeling still there

But you don't realize.

I want to see you

So maybe there is a feeling

The only hope I have

Even though you'd never take me back.

But I'd take you back

Any day

Any minute

Any second.

All's you'd have to do is ask,

Even though you never will.

Got the idea for the time line from AbbieRoseee

I give her full credit for the time line idea.

Only mines a different story.
