For Her

For the girl that calls me her gump I write you this poem
Because you are my Gump 

The church was where I met you 
Way back in the day 
Not knowing what we’d soon be going through, 
So I have a lot to say, 

 From then on we became friends, 
not knowing first communion would end, 

I remember how much we use to laugh, 
We would have endless conversations, 
You was something I couldn’t pass, 
Cuz I had the patience, 

One year had past since I last seen you 
Not knowing I’d see you again 
7th grade was here 
Not knowin we’d become closer friends 

8th grade came so we became even closer 
We both knew what we wanted 
Cuz we wanted eachother, 

I remember that night 
When I asked you out 
Your answer to my question 
Was something I didn’t doubt 

It wasn’t that long 
Till it came to an end 
So in this poem 
I dare not say what happened, 

As we moved on to highschool 
We hadn’t spoken since our little incident 
9th grade you wanted a second chance 
I said no 

You said not care what happened 
But still I said no. 

Time had passed 
We finally made peace 
It was about time 
Cuz all the tension was released 

10th grade you left 
You were no longer here 
Even though we kept in touch 
Not seeing you again 
Was something I feared 

Senior year you came back 
From parties to pissing Karen off 
And homecoming and prom 
We been through it all 

You of all people warned me about “her” 
I should’ve never had her as my lover 

Look now were in college 
weve been through so much 
don’t worry, theres always gonna be oppurtunities 
for me and you 
because my feelings have always been deep for you 
in other words this whole poem means 
I………you
