HIGHSCHOOL

I remember coming to your locker,

Being swift dressed in my Dockers,

I always followed you to class,

As the bell rang, I had to go fast.

 

You were a spotless and smart student,

I wanted to be with you and not ruined it,

The school day ended too sudden,

You made my day and it was abundant.

 

Then I would see you at our job,

I would flirt with you and not be a snob,

The burgers would get burnt,

I just wanted to watch you as I learnt.

 

Then I took you out for roast beef,

You were immaculate as my little sheep,

I always wanted to guard you,

My heart was burning if you ever knew.

 

I recall the day when you scared me,

Almost sleeping behind the wheel,

But we made it home safe and free,

I was relieved and that’s how I feel.

 

Then we went on the highest roller coasters,

You were hanging on my wall with a big poster,

We would walk and hold each other hands,

Driving to the beach and lying in the sand.

 

Our first movie together was Titanic,

Sitting beside you I was a manic,

More cinemas happened each Tuesday night,

I would hold the door and be polite.

 

You always had to call your Mom,

Getting our pictures developed on CD-ROM,

We would overfill our picture albums,

Then kissing you, I would get a piece of your gum.

 

I think we went two years seeing each other every day,

I refused to go camping without you in May,

You are my best friend and my rock,

I could sit down with you all day and talk.
