He drove his truck down a long county road
To make sure they didn’t get caught
He was finally with the girl he chased for four years
Now they are young adults in their twenties
Talking about life and filling in the gaps since they last spoke
He wanted to make sure there was still a spark for her
It was passed midnight and he turned the engine off
His piercing blue eyes met her kelly green eyes
Their lips met and became numb from constant touching
After they came up for air and their eyes met again
Looking loving at each other with a sense of deprivation
At the same time they came to the same conclusion
It is too late to reenact the teenage dream

how sad, reminds me of Ariana's lyrics:
'And we almost, we almost knew what love was
But almost is never enough
If I could change the world overnight
There'd be no such thing as goodbye
You'd be standing right where you were
And we'd get the chance we deserve'
(still, seems you got the chance
just wasn't meant to be
and Time, is certainly on your side)
thanks for sharing, a wonderful read
Thank you for your comment.
No need to live life off the past, forget the "Ideal Teenage Dream" we all have our own dreams we should be striving for, not for the one everyone else wants!
Thank you for your comment.
Of course!
