The first thing I saw on my schedule was Photography first period in Room B22 My first photography class started with me rushing in tardy with tears I sat far away from everyone else trying to disappear I had no friends in that class and I didn't think i'd like Room B22
There was a boy in my class in Room B22 I didn't notice him at first but he seemed kind He was scrawny and cute with brunette hair just a few shades lighter than mine I still didn't know anyone in Room B22
That boy talked to me one day in Room B22 And I tried to remember his name I think it was Nathan...or Nick....or may be James Wait! James was his brother and he was Nick, one of the many things I learned in Room B22
I started a friendship with Nicholas in Room B22 He'd always show off his pictures in the dark room And I'd flick water at him while the other students fumed I was glad I formed a friendship in Room B22
Our friendship began to grow outside of Room B22 We would talk in the hallway and exchange words I grew fond of him and when we said goodbye, I missed him afterwards I thought about how I never would have met him if it weren't for Room B22
I developed a little crush on him in Room B22 I tried so many times to tell him but the words got caught in my throat I was concerned about our friendship and lost all hope I held a lot of things back in Room B22
I fell completely in love in Room B22 I told him things I couldn't confess to myself And he never treated me any differently, like I was someone else I met my best friend and my first love in Room B22
This poem is for my boyfriend, Nick who I met in Photography first period in room B22. I think sometimes about what it would be like if one of us didn't take photography and if we would have ever met and I'm not sure, but I'm just glad we both did.
