I remember

I remember you, and how you used to make me feel

I remember my first grade teacher, and how she died from cancer

I remember that nightmare that haunted my dreams each and every night I stayed at your house

I remember the old painting in my sisters room that used to put shivers down my spine

I remember sitting in my grandmas hot tub in the winter with all my cousins and getting dared to go sledding down the golf course hill in nothing but our swim suits and all catching a cold shortly after

I remember my first kiss, and how she was taller than me so I had to stand on the curb so I could reach her

I remember my pet bunny, and how sad I felt when I had to give him away

I remember the last time my older brother talked to me

I remember my first day of school in Utah, and how welcomed I felt

I remember my last conversation with my great grandfather

I remember the first book I ever read

I remember the time my big brother threw a computer speaker at my head and split it open

I also remember the day I got revenge

I remember the day my big bro taught me how to ride a bike without training wheels

I remember the first goal I scored on my little league soccer team and how if the defenders weren't staring off into space I wouldn't of scored the goal

I remember the first time I saw my mom cry and how I cried too

I remember the day my cousin died, and how sad I felt because that was the first time I ever lost someone 

I remember when I broke my ankle 1 hour before prom and how I still went then the next day went to the emergency room

I remember the smell of my old best friends house and how I always hated it

I remember going from 6th grade to junior high and how all of my friends changed 

I remember when I realized what life was really about.
