Where is the boy I learned to love?
The one who promised me the moon and the stars,
and never a day without the sun?
Where is the boy who accepted my faults?
Who learned to look past my imperfections,
and see the beauty in my scars.
Where is the boy who never gave up a fight?
Who forced me to solve our problems before I even realized we had any.
Where is the boy who wasn't afraid of the world?
The one who would scream "I love you"
and not care who was around to hear it.
Where is the boy who saw our forever?
The one who knew the greatness we had together
and wanted to live it out to the fullest.
Where is that boy?
Because he is not here,
and I'm not sure he ever was.

Where is the boy who wasn't afraid of the world?

Where is the boy who saw our forever?
The one who knew the greatness we had together
and wanted to live it out to the fullest.
Where is that boy?
Because he is not here,
and I'm not sure he ever was.
