Before

by JustAFoolInLove   Jun 16, 2005


I’m here dwelling on memories
Of the old you and I
Before everything ended
Before you said goodbye

Before the week I was gone
And before I missed you,
Before you told me what you did
Before I wondered what to do

Before I realized
We both shared depression
And before I worried
About my first impression

Before I knew
The taste of your lips
Before I brushed back your hair
With curious fingertips

Before I wondered
How you heart would feel
As it beat on my chest
And I’d pray it was real

Before I cried every night
After letting you go
I cried because I love you
And thought you’d never know
