The first day I saw you,
Some time in late May,
You came up behind me,
Too afraid to say,
"Hello, how are you? My name is__"
So I teased, joked
and suddenly-
BROKE
It was then I realised,
Behind my hate,
My arrogance,
My incompetence to love,
You were beautiful.

I never thought it would get anywhere,
Thursday nights just hanging out,
me and you forever and always,

I never thought I'd love you,
I never thought I'd lie,
I knew you had to leave,
although my heart ignored it.

I'm two years wiser,
Two years more broken.
Two years of remembering.
I'll always remember that day in late May,
Where you never had the courage to say,
"Hello".
