Once Upon Your Sunshine


Between us there was honesty,

Honesty that made everything feel so real.

There was always appreciation for one another

Which felt like we were the only ones on this world,

Enough for each other.

We traded secrets and mocked the world,

Like children under a magic fort.

We were friends before taking the title of boyfriend and girlfriend.

There was laughter and food,

Watching movies, and taking surveys that “determined” our future.

You told me that I was your sunshine,

Bringing you back into the light,

Away from your darkness.

Because I love you,

You were my light, too,

Making me feel complete when I was with you.
