r/PureHeartRomance

Wish we’d fallen in love as kids, in the most innocent way,
Sitting on a curb enjoying popsicles on a summer day.

To giggle at the silliest things,
“Let’s see who can go the highest on the swings!”,
Or ride our bikes around the block,
And cover the sidewalk with colorful chalk.

Two careless kids climbing up trees,
Running around with scraped knees.
Spending hours together at the park,
“I spy with my little eye something red..!”
[blurted into empty streets]
as we began walking home before dark.

Now we run from love for our own sake,
Wish we’d fallen in love, before we experienced a heartbreak.
