She asked what it would be like to grow old?
I guess I hadn't really thought about it
A little bittersweet
Like the green apples that matched your eyes
How exciting that the moments we shared
Would be all our own
Just you and I's
And we eat our apples different ways
You like yours peeled with a little bit of caramel
I like mine with a little crunch and straight to the core
I guess life's a little like that
It's whatever we chose for it to be right?
How terrifying that were stuck with what we have
I guess that's the most exciting part
Never knowing what we'll get to choose
I just hope it taste a lot like apples
Maybe a hint of you too
For Bella
