Rhyme Scheme: ABCBDEC FGDHIEC JGEKELBM INDO PMCQERB QST| To my childhood love | A |
| How many times we stared at one another | B |
| We smiled babishly but scared to touch | C |
| We sat at angles we'd glance at the other | B |
| In that sunday school class | D |
| Yet we couldn't share a word | E |
| I'd shudder at your touch | C |
| - | |
| You'd watch me play with others at break | F |
| You'd go physical whoever hurt me | G |
| You'd wait for me at that Grade class | D |
| Incase I was late | H |
| Incase I didn't show up | I |
| Yet we couldn't share a word | E |
| I'd shudder at your touch | C |
| - | |
| You'd escort me with your brown eyes | J |
| Maybe you cried but I couldn't see | G |
| As I disappeared home as the day dusked | E |
| And it could be the longest of the nights | K |
| Before another magical day | E |
| Was it love or infatuation | L |
| Maybe the latter was to lead to the former | B |
| But all of us were fools cowards | M |
| - | |
| At Grade I thought you could man up | I |
| But you stood there and wished me farewell | N |
| Like any other candidate in that class | D |
| And the words 'I LOVE YOU' were heavy for your young tongue | O |
| - | |
| Today I look back and recal with nostalgia | P |
| As I go through the letter you wrote me afterwards | M |
| That you loved me so much | C |
| And that you needed me in your life | Q |
| But all these was too late | E |
| Was already in love with another boy | R |
| Who was to break my heart forever | B |
| - | |
| I've lived a lie all my life | Q |
| Just because you were a fool | S |
| To say 'I LOVE YOU' | T |
