Remember
The playground friends you made
down by the block?
You promised to see them again
but its been emptyRemember
The teddy bear you got
for achieving that reward?
you dont care much about the certificate
But its all hung up on your wallsRemember
the roller coaster you were to scared to ride on?
you went on it anyway
and you wet on it tooRemember
the board games you played with your family?
Your dad always won the game
But that's because he was fooling aroundremember
crying in your room alone
because the childhood you wanted is gone
because someone took it away from youremember
the pain and struggles you went through
just to fit in with the other kids
just so you'd have a purposeremember
the failing grades
the foolish behaviour
the aching pain
of losing a family memberyou've changed.
you've changed.
and you don't even know if it's for the better.
