sugar water

And she was, or was i
Hopeful enough to drink too much
Enough to grow a beard

And she was, or was i
Asking politely
If the driver would play her music

And she was, and she was, and she was

Or was i
A sort of gentleman
To hold your hand, but arise unknowing
Shrugging off a spotless mind

Geezer

not sure that I have the thought behind this one correct. I think what you are longing for is, a young and innocent love, one that hasn't been tainted by having loved or been loved before? Intriguing mood. ~ Geezer.

Nice write!
Love relies on feelings and actions. I think both of you didn't know the next junction to follow.
The feelings you have for each other is not strong, since you are doubtful.

Thank you, I'm glad you could catch the hint of doubt in the poem. I've showed it to a few people and they interpreted differently than I intended but you seemed to get what I was initially going for haha.
