reminiscing

we were young, playing cards
beneath the table's shade,
exchanging glances,
warm smiles and heated eyes.

i helped him cheat from time to time,
lending him a peek
at my exam paper, stealthily so.

i would brush his ears, caress his hair, innocent geatures that didn't lead to anything more.
but in the moment, those tender affections meant everything and more.

he was my first love i guess, but to him, it wasn't so.
