The one about my first crush

Taking a trip down memory lane! I wrote this when I was 16 or 17 I guess.. It's funny to me how I still hold some hope of this ever happening. I think it's the season... Anyway changed little parts, cuz I thought I could write it better now. Enjoy.


Just been having one of those thought again. Scenario's keep playing in my head of "what if" situations and again I am amazed at how much time I spend thinking of all kinds of outcomes (all in my favor of course) Today I saw someone in a picture that looked just like you, so I cut it out and pinned it on my board. I know, it's sad right... But I dont want to forget how you looked like, so I could show people and say: "hey, this is the one who made me who I am today (or at least how you looked like a bit).
My thoughts always go a little something like this..

It would be outside somewhere, maybe in front of your favourite pizza place where I still look inside everytime I pass it by. And of course it wouldn't happen on the days when I would like to see you again. My eyes would be drowsy, my hair a mess or my clothes bumming, ya know, stuff like that. But I would not let this opportunity pass me by seeing as I have done that once before to me everlasting regret.. I would come up to you and say: "HEY, long time no see!" (overhappily ofcourse) We would both say we were fine, even if we weren't, cuz it's what everybody does. I would make sure to lead the conversation on as long as possible. I would talk about school, jobs, the weather even! I would shamelessly use it all just so you'd know that I hadn't forgotten about the connection we once had. The talks we had, the laughs we shared, our former bodies that we'd seen .. and the present body I'd want you to look at now.

Minutes that would later seem like a lifetime would go by and just when you would say those closing words: "But eh.." I would casually try to end the conversation before you can, pretending like there was some other place I needed to be instead of right there with you... And before my mind can wrap around what is coming out of mouth I would say: "Hey! You got facebook? So we dont have to catch up every seven years in seven minutes, heh.."

Of course, this is just a thought...
