My Years Without YOU
Freshman year of High school.
 I was scared,
 With no one to talk to
 No one to relate to,
 All I had was my Xbox 
 And of course baseball. 
 But with all of that said
 You always made my morning,
 Made my morning brighter 
 By seeing you.
 
 Sophomore year.
 A better year,
 Full of a lot of changes
 And different people,
 I had friends,
 People that I could relate too
 People who knew where I was coming from.
 And I had girls flirt with me
 All the time,
 And I never asked them out.
 Why?
 Well cause,
 I didn’t have you. 
 And I was willing to wait,
 Wait a very long time.
 
 Junior year.
 The year that I had the guts,
 The guts to actually talk to you.
 It might have taken half of the year
 But I did it!
 I talked to you,
 But you never talked back.
 I tried and tried,
 Tried to make you talk to me
 But I wasn’t very successful.
 But making you laugh…
 Now that’s what I could make you do,
 Even with really lame jokes
 You would laugh.
 That made Chemistry a lot better.
 
 Senior year.
 My last year to try and snag you,
 But with a lot less time
 Due to graduation.
 I didn’t have you in any classes
 But I would see you,
 Every morning and say Hi.
 And sometimes we might actually talk,
 But not for very long,
 
 Than third quarter came a long,
 And I was in the computer lab
 Working on a scholarship.
 Waiting.
 Hoping,
 That one day you would walk,
 Walk through those doors
 And sit next to me.
 And then one day you did,
 My heart racing
 Palms were getting sweaty
 Would you remember me?
 Will you ignore me?
 
 Okay come on Nick
 Say something…
 Hi Krystal.
 And the rest is history.
 How long will things last?
 I don’t know
 We’re just taking it one day at a time,
 And however long it last…
 Fantastic!
