The Beginning

This is where it all started,
Back on the first day of 'big school',
Not even a full year into my teens,
I see my friend from football,
Waving ecstatically at me,
He stands beside someone,
A young relative of his...

Something overcame me that day,
My mouth went dry,
My heart was beating madly in my chest,
We didn't even exchange pleasantries,
We didn't need to,
Without even meaning to or trying to,
She had already caught me...

And she would hold onto me,
Unknowingly,
For nearly five years,
But now those feelings of love have vanished,
As so much has happened to me since that day,
I have grown up,
But my heart seems to have grown down...
