Old Love Letters

Do you remember in elementary school swapping notes?
Then finding the torn super secret messages in your coats?
Of codes that you've forgotten how to read over the year
But if the teachers could read them, oh how we did fear!

In middle school there were less real words and more codes
Usually about homework and how we all had loads and loads
Do you remember writing about your crush of the day
Or you blushed the first time he said to you 'hey'?

High school we became a bit more sophisticated in our ways
Texting and typing, no more letter writing in our days
There were a few notes stashed away in our lockers and books
But not often, after awhile we'd develop the 'cellphone looks'

As we age our love letters become more concrete each year
And attached with less 'hi sexy' but more 'I adore you, dear'
The littlest things, such as opening the door, become appreciated
And the best of these things never become outdated

Whether you are young, wild and free or older and a bit tame
You should know that love is forever, and for every gentleman and dame
