Started soon after being toddlers
writing love letters
sending our delivery fellas
kissing your chick running away
looking at you blushing
forgetting what I want to say
Running out of words after saying "Hey"
yet sharing the same class everyday
Acting like a nerd in need
of what makes me bleed
as my approaching skills where bad
Puberty kicking in
Wet dreaming
Imagining you in my bed
High school
taught me how to play it cool
So I Stopped being a fool
Stopped expressing using a tool
Told you about a magical place you hold
in my heart which is worth more than gold
for you are just priceless
Suddenly you were voiceless
So I improvised and continued the process
of making you my College spacious
I needed nothing more precious
from the previous years but you
Today I am telling our child how it all started
