At EIGHTEEN we met At a party that I still remember. It was fall, the air changing It was beginning to get dark The sun was going down, The air getting cold. I remember when you bumped onto me That warmth that rushed on my arm. I remember the blue eyes, That mischievous smile. I remember your touch, The "hello" coming from your lips. I remember you across the room Your blue eyes looking, The wink, The smile, The laugh, Could my teenage heart know? That skip, That beat, What did it mean? You walked towards me, Your blue eyes never leaving me, "Hello" you said again. I remember you grabbed my hand, You pulled me closer Whispering into my ear, And the chill running through me, I knew it wasn't from the cold, fall, air. We found a spot and we talked. Hours went by, We realized the sun came up. At NINETEEN we went out, That's when we got serious. You were the one, You were my first. Time went by, Our highs, Our lows, We were inseparable, We said the I love yous'. At Twenty we fought Times got tough, We had some rough times. The talks we had, For the now, The what ifs, The future. Still at Twenty... We loved, Unconditionally, We tried to make it work. At Twenty-One The parties, Constant work, Life, College, We couldn't take it all We were too young. We broke up. At Twenty-Two We were friends, Still in love. We knew it would be forever, That would never change. You moved away I stayed. We moved on, We went our separate ways. At Twenty-Three You came back, but You left again. At Twenty-Four We lost touch, You had moved on, And so had I. Years went by, We barely talked, When we did, we knew, The feelings were always there, Never going away. At Twenty-Seven You bumped on to me, That warmth down my arm, Familiar. Your blue eyes, Your mischievous smile, Your touch, Your Hello. It all came to me. We hung out, We found a spot and talked Letting the night fall, And the sun rise. That skip, That beat, What did it mean? Could my grownup heart know? We said the I love yous. At Twenty-Eight We talked, You wanted to meet and Know my new family. At Twenty-Eight I got the news that you were gone. At Twenty-Eight It all came crashing down. At Twenty-Eight I remembered everything. At Twenty-Eight It was more powerful then, Than the last ten years. At Twenty-Eight The goodbye I could never say, The closure that never came. At Twenty-Eight You, my first love Were gone. At Twenty-Eight I will forever remember you. At Twenty-Eight You will always have a piece of my heart.

Twenty-Eight
At EIGHTEEN we met At a party that I still remember. It was fall, the air changing It was beginning to get dark The sun was going down, The air getting cold.
