Playground Love



Playground love.

Forever, right?
Is what we tell eachother every time we feel a that feeling
A Feeling that you never want to loose
A moment you want to last
 forever.
Its such an easy phrase to say.
Mid day on the playground
Young,
 “forever, right?”
 is the phrase you would say at the top of the slide with your little boyfriend
Holding hands
 playing tag
 seeing who can get the highest on the swings,
 or if you can manage to swing, back, and fourth, in sync.
Its simply a phase.
I've gone through this phase
 almost everyone has.
Mine was with a pale skinned, long brown hair skinny blue eyed boy.
It was silly.
The passing of notes.
Saving a seat at lunch
Crossing fingers that you are seated next to each other
Sweaty palms joint together under the desk
The reason you wanted to go to school.
This was love to us.
Playground love was probably the most genuine love that i have felt in a long time.
I miss my playground lover.
I miss elementary,
playground. love.
