Growing Up

I was the crazy, silly, goofy little girl of the block and you.. you were the dorky goofy little boy of the block together we were a wild little crew soon years pass and now were a little older I'm still the crazy, silly, goofy girl of the block but you...your the hardcore, trouble-maker boy of the block now were teenagers... we go on different paths yet were still best friends now im the odd, strange, dark girl of the block and you...you're the jail bird trapped with drugs... my heart aches for you to get better.. then the truth comes out... you become all my heart beats for, all I care for.. you tell me you love me and I say it back... then one day... you get in serious trouble.. you call me my heart stops.. you come over its 9:30... were standing on my porch... hugging I cry in your shoulder... then we start swaying your soft gentle lips met my forehead as you kiss me.. heart sinks throat swells stomach churns.. your soft gentle sweet words play in my head like a broken record.. promising me that one day we share a dance together each day we talk my heart jumps growing up we were the same and now... were two different people... now years have passed.. and I wait patiently for that special dance
