More Than Memories

high school relationships
not meant to last
a week 
a month
your lucky if you make it to a year
its just experimenting
testing the waters
discovering yourself
through the interaction with another
but i don't believe 
that, thats all you are
that, thats all we can ever be
an experiment
a stage
a high school relationship
i look around and see 
relationships destroyed by the stupidity of high school
and the uncertainty of adolescence 
and the unbelievable stress of human nature
but i dont want to be 
just a memory
i want us to be the exception
so marry me...
through facebook
and we'll see if we can be more than memories
