The boys in my class
If they crushed on me
Since I crushed on them
The girls and I would sing
The silly songs of romance
As if we really knew
Little dandelions were given to a crush
Seats were saved in the bus
But we didn't know
Same as we don't know now
How long it will last
As we grew friends became more defined
Relationships turned into local trip
And we were home before dark
Sleepovers were becoming rare
Rumors between only friends were rampant
Best friends had your back, girls and boys alike
Boundaries were pushed then never brought up
Laughs were shared as were secret smiles
I'm just glad we waited to see if we were true
But we didn't know
Same as we don't know now
How long it will last
As adults love is but a fairy tale that is always seen
Those who were burned leave it to the others
Those who are blessed take it in stride
Those who enjoy the moment live love everyday
Best friends have adventures and no one talks
Little adult crushes make the world pay attention
I'll just take it all as it comes and love my life
Crazy adventures with the more tame excursions
And just continue letting others be who they are
For we don't know
Same as we didn't know then
How long it will last
