Didn't Mean To


I didn't mean to notice you, but I did. When I tripped over my introduction, When my hand grazed yours, Or when I stared down into your ever changing iris. I didn't mean to, but I did. When we shared our darkest secrets, When we pulled pranks in the eerie of darkness, When you would play me music that you wrote on a whim. I didn't mean to, but I did. When I said "molested, When you said" divorcing", Even when they told me "you can't love your brother's best friend". I didn't mean to, but I did. When I dated other people to forget you, When you went off to join the Navy, That breath taking moment when you said "I love you, too". We didn't mean to, but we did.
