"If forever is true, make it true, don't give it a second thought," ... by The Poet "Okay kids, this is December's first day so let's go in and see what it could be," [Oh my goodness ..., I thought she moved away] "Kids, don't go too far." "Dad, I need to pee." "Okay son, the bathroom's right over here." "Go on inside, I'll be right here." [She looks just the same, never aged a bit ... then, we're young and in love ... me carrying her books walking with her to our class ... and her laugh ... I can't get over that ... Ha, and her hair still gets in the way ... we spent nearly half of ... oh, she sees me ... (both smiling) then there gone again ... we thought forever was true] "Okay Dad, who's that?" "Thought someone I knew."
