Remember when we lay there in the black night, cooling skin heating the twin sheets.
We pushed our beds together and for some reason I felt okay.
I told you about my heart and my head and all things in between.
You told me I was good enough.
I was good enough
I was better
Than it all.
Ever since that night you heard me cry and you really heard me I have loved you.

Remember when I walked alone through the stagnant darkness to his house.
All I wanted was you.
And you came.
You came running as fast as you could.
And you were there.
I never wanted to let go of you.
Of all of you.
I will never let go of you.

Once you said you were thinking about becoming old and looking back on these days and smiling because they are filled with me and you and the world.

I didn't believe because boys, and kisses, and parents, and moves, and best friends, and time, and life came in between.

But somehow I always ended up back on your curb.

I don't know if you will ever know how big I smile when I think over our years.

But it's my best smile. My biggest.

You know the one.

Love-

Gwen.
