Just Like Then

[Nimiane]

Just like then

She smiles at me
I smile back
a usual routine

They say something
I whine
usual silliness

just like then

it's a whirl
I'm all confused
I walk a block in silence

I talk with him
I talk with her
I'm still confused

this is now

I cover my ears
he covers them too
teasing ensues

He leans forward
his lips brush my cheek
I'm shocked

That was then
then is now
now was then
