A short poem made of memories. |
I Remember It All I remember the day we met. You were seven and I was five. My big brother was "hypnotizing" me with a watch. And you were laughing. And I loved it. Your laugh. So I kept playing along Even thought it felt somewhat foolish. I remember the day you came over to play. And I was crying because I was mad at my sister. You came over to me and you poked me And You told me that she hadn't hurt I was ok I should stop crying. And so I did. I wanted you to be happy at me. I remember the day we went to your house I play. We were older now. You were ten and I was eight. My sister played with your sister. But I played Spider-Man with you and our brothers. And you seemed happy that I was playing with you. I cannot tell you How happy that made me. I remember the day, Years after Spider-Man, When you played guitar for us all. And I fell for your smile all over again. I even remember, Thought I wish I didn't, The day you fell for her. And I watched. But my mouth did not speak and my body did not move. There was nothing I could do. I also remember the day she broke your heart. And I wanted to hold you tight. Just to be with you. But I knew I coudln't. I remember the day a year after that I had my brother's phone. You had texted him. You asked if he remembered The day I played Spider-Man. I cried. So surprised And so happy That you remembered That day. That was one of my favorites. I love you. I realize now I may have always loved you. And it is quite possible I WILL always love you. Will you remember? |
