The Story of a Boy and Girl
By TheForgotten
I knew a boy,
He smiled and laughed,
He hung out with a little tomboy,
They lived across the street,
.
Together they would play
Until their mothers called them in,
A story with an ending not too sweet,
.
They grew up,
And from lines that crossed all day
They became parallel,
He took for the cool crowd,
Surrounded by the fast lane,
But the girl
Her mind had become a dark cloud,
.
Long nights spent wondering
Where he had gone,
Being just across the street,
So close
But the walk was too big a feat
.
Even older they grew,
Still in school,
And she had grown to think her old best friend
Had become a tool,
The boy no longer thought about the nights spent
Seeing who could go faster on their bike around the bend,
The days spent bouncing on the trampoline
And thinking they could fly,
.
No this boy no longer cared,
He spent time with his new friends,
He went to parties,
And all the beautiful girls
All the tens,
.
The girl was still a tomboy,
Still wore jeans instead of leggings,
And it was all gone
Her joy,
A sad girl she had grown to be,
She wished for the days of flight,
Not for her internal fight,
.
While the boy had been away,
Her father had as well,
Left
Gone,
Never coming back,
She needed her old friend
Where was he
In her time of need
He was different now
A new kind of breed
.
And she’d pass him in the hallways,
And he’d see her walk home,
These long nights and days,
Spent being alone,
.
To tell the truth
This isn’t the story of a girl and boy
It’s the story of me and you
