I Hope Love Isn't Like The Movies

Ah, to be a young lover
Of film.  The newest movie
You see is the best,
Until you see another.

Until I was thirteen.
Ten years gone, Empire
and The Princess Bride
Are still the best I've seen.

It worries me.

Is ten years into dating
The best it ever gets?
Emotion is too fleeting to
Record onto cassettes.
