perfect

"so far,
i still know who you are,
but now i wonder who i was."

a first love is the most unique love you will ever experience. it makes you so happy and so sad at the same time, but when you're with the one you first gave your heart to, they make you feel like you couldn't be more

"perfect
strangers down the line,
lovers out of time,
memories unwind..."

i know that i've grown up since then, and he's not the same, i'm sure. i feel like if we had only met a year later, things would have been different.

and yet, it couldn't have been more perfect the way it was.

"angel, you know it's not the end.
we'll always be good friends;
the letters have been sent on."

it's someone you will never forget, this first love. you may want to more than anything in the world, but you can never completely leave it behind. you may find yourself wondering on a saturday night just how it is that you could still be the same as you were together as you are apart, though years and countless influences have changed you.

but no matter what,

"perfect -
you know this has to be."
