We listened to tales by moonlight together every other night,
Went on hikes after school each day,
Walked to the stream too, yes, to fill the empty water pots.
This will last forever we always said.
"Who's in the garden?" A little fine girl.
You got the attention while I drowned in your shadow.
While coming back from school just the other day,
My crush laughed at me and my insides did a flip over.
"Talk to your friend for me, I like her" he said,
Crashing, tumbling, came my fantasy world.
Days into weeks, weeks into months, months into years,
We continued to do the same routine on the surface,
You'd come share your pains with me because you are sure I'd comfort you,
"Where are you? I need you!" I said to you,
Soon, baby girl, I'll be with you.
In vain I waited for you but, as always you didn't come.
Friendship is beautiful, oh yes,
Even sweeter when love takes the lead,
We are the envy of all that know us.
Our smiles so beautiful and radiant,
Each completing the other's sentences.
Back from the stream, away you went to man of my dreams,
I waved you away with a wide smile as I walked to my room,
I deserve some accolades for this act of bravery,
I'm all alone inside, alone, how would you know?
I fault you not for, I'm a big pretender!
