we were
sitting so close,
and he pulled
our blue and white
plaid blanket
over our heads.

this is where
we shared our first
kisses,
and our first
"i love you's"
and lost our
first innocences.

and underneath
he whispered in
my ear,
"we are hiding from
the world,
just you and I.
and then we
will face the world
together"

and so we are.
