Reminiscence

Do you remember the time we thought we saw a spaceship?
Do you remember the time we walked home from school?
Do you remember the time you wrote me a poem?
I do.

Do you remember when you wore a miniskirt and it fit perfectly?
Do you remember when you snuck out at two in the morning to see me?
Do you remember when we hid from cars after curfew?
I do.

Do you remember talking across enemy lines while playing capture the flag?
Do you remember talking about music while we walked?
Do you remember talking about where we were headed in the world?
I do.

Do you remember the time you tackled me and wouldn't let me go?
Do you remember when you gave me a rose?
Do you remember talking to me on the phone?
I do.

I remember the first time I met you.
I remember the heart ashley drew around our names on her door.
I remember the way you used to look at me.

I remember the time you came over when I was sick.
I remember when you called me your best friend.
I remember the time you sat with me on the bus.

I remember the time you asked me to dance.
I remember how you were the only one who would listen to me.
I remember how you used to make fun of me for being deaf.

I remember how you were there for me when no one else was.
I remember how you always helped me when I was confused.
I remember how you were my friend when I didn't deserve it.

I remember when you said you were moving.
I remember when you apologized.
I remember when I apologized and you said you'd never hate me.

Do you?

Were you ever truly in love?
I was.

I've told myself again and again, just to let you go.
But I won't ever be able to forget.

I know there's nothing I can do.
I know it's over.
I know I've lost.
I've accepted that and I don't expect anything from you.

I'll always remember everything you did for me.
I'll always regret every moment I didn't take advantage of.

Roses are red.
Violets are blue.
It's sad because
you don't know how much I love you...
