Learning To Skate

Alone, I'm the solitaire person at the town's artifical pond Early in morning, I have come to learn to skate With my brand new skate As I put them on, the flashback memories Comes flooding into my mind But the memory that keeps telling me To go on is the one with you How you laughed with yr constant laugh Picking me up And falling yourself in the process I took baby steps on the ice- and fell Got slowly back up and continued on Took more baby steps and glided beautifully As though, I was a professional Then, tried to stop and fell on my face I smiled because I almost had it Got up once more And slowly went across the pond I turned around and found you Clapping with a big smile on yr face I can tell you were proud And because of you, the memories Of embarrassment disappeared
