When we were 4 you
shared your toys willingly with me at the daycare we both
attended.
When we were 5, we took swimming lessons together and we'd
have the best water fights.
When we were six, you and I stayed up in your tree house for
hours, reading our favorite books.
When we were seven, you told me that you thought I had pretty
hair.
When we were eight, we'd go on walks together when our
families were fighting, which was often.
When we were nine, we vowed to always be best friends.
When we were ten, we wrote letters to ourselves when we graduated
from highschool, and we put each other's picture inside.
When we were eleven, you told me that you thought I was the
greatest friend you've ever had, even if I was a girl.
When we were twelve, we started middle school together and you
stood up for me when the school bully called me
"ugly."
When we were thirteen, you and I joined together on a science
project, and we won.
When we were fourteen, we graduated eighth grade together and
went to the dance as friends.
When we were fifteen, we learned what pain really means as your
mom passed away and I stayed up to hear you cry.
Now that we're sixteen, I have to admit..
I'm in love with you.
