I was 15 years old. I met her on a rainy day, talking to people I knew. I stopped and talked, awkwardly making eye contact
laughing at her jokes. I had to go, and made my excuses. On my way home I realised that she had been doing the same things that I was.
I was smitten. That evening, all I could do was think about her beautiful blue eyes and her enchanting voice.
It was several days before I bumped into her friends. Ever so carefully I brought the conversation topic to her. I was told that they were going to the cinema that evening, and would I like to go?
i jumped at the chance.
That evening, I was spellbound. I can’t recall what we went to see, but I can recall everything we talked about that evening. I walked her home, and outside her house I stole my a kiss from her.
I walked home in a trance.
we continued to meet, and to grow increasingly together. Before long, I was knee deep in puppy love.
we spent the entire summer together. I had never been in love before, and it was the greatest feeling of my life.
As summer turned to Autumn, Nature str#uck in ways that I had never new existed.
She dumped me.
I was sick for weeks. I thought my world would end.
I bumped into her last night for the first time in about 2 years. She has matured into a very beautiful, very intelligent lady. But something was missing. The glint from her eyes, that I once saw, was now replaced by a glint for someone else.
We talked about old times, and laughed about what we once were.
Sometimes I wish I could have those teenage kicks again, but as Garth Brooks says, I would have missed the dance.
