They're carving their names on our tree.
I pray they don't accidentally carve ours out.
They're twiddling each other's fingers.
I put that old plastic ring on and pretend it's Your hand.
She's waiting for him to text.
I've ran to the mailbox for 6 weeks straight.
He's whispering "I Love You" in her ear.
I read it a week later.
They're hold each other as the tears fall.
I squeeze that old stuffed animal.
They're missing after one day of not seeing each other.
We miss everyday for 8 months.
They're crying after having to say goodbye.
I still do.
They've just begun.
We're halfway through.
They feel.
I remember.
We were once blissfully them.
But now we're perfectly Us.
And while I sometimes miss being blissfully them,
There's a reason we're perfectly Us now.
This is so beautiful.
