Edward and I try to take things slow,

To date each other,

Get to know one another again.

But it's difficult.

We were best friends,

We started dating at sixteen,

And we used to live together.

We already know each other.

But we do try,

Because it would be so easy to pick up where we left off,

Jump right back into our relationship,

And we need some time to reconnect.

We both know we're in this forever,

There's no rush,

So we've not taken our relationship further,

But I don't know how much longer either of us can wait.
