Love One Day

I met Love
A short time back
A time I can barely remember

I said hi
Love said hello
Have we met?
Love said,
I don't think so

It didn't matter
Love didn't mind
We spoke and spent some time together
Exchanged numbers, drank water high above city lights

I said I knew Love
But then later I wasn't sure
At that time I lost myself
And found myself more with her than before

I didn't feel the need
I felt I didn't have the time
It seemed fair
So I kept my mouth shut

Even worse,
I called Love something she was not
I called out friend
When I should have said Love

I always wanted to tell Love
When I am myself
I say I love you, friend
But would like it to mean more

I found you, Love...
But I can't be with you today
I found you, but hopefully us could wait
I'm your friend,
But I hope, I too can be your Love one day
