I Remember

I remember
What life was like before you and I were here
What it was like to be able to sit and talk to you, for hours

I remember
What my life was like before you
What my life is like without you

I remember
What it was like to kiss you for the very first time
What it was like when you kissed me goodbye

I remember
What it was like to share secrets over the phone
What it was like when it was just you and me

I remember
What it was like when we could depend upon each other
What it was like to call you my own

I remember
What it was like to hear you say I love you
What it was like when you betrayed my trust

I remember
What it was like to be there for you when no one else was
What it was like to comfort you
What it was like to see you cry

I remember
What it was like when you and I were “just friends”
What it was like to know that we would always be friends

I remember
What it was like to laugh with you
What it was like to be in your presence
What it was like to share in your dreams

I remember
What it was like to see and feel your wrath
What it felt like when you broke every promise

I remember
What it felt like to live in, of and for every moment
What it felt like to finally make peace with it all

I remember
Everything about us

Do you?
