Day 13

Remember

I will always remember…
Those first nights of pure freedom
And the air, cool and welcoming
Blasting my favorite music and not caring who listened in.
I will always remember…
That old man who pulled me aside
And thanked me for being the only one who cared.
Reading that beloved paper
That I had spent hours on
Then having it destroyed by red pen.
I will always remember…
Awkward moments with a once close friend
And feeling the distance between us.
The memory of that girl’s anger towards me
And growing stronger because of it.
I will always remember…
That I didn’t speak up
When I knew I should have.
Falling for him
And having my heart broken.
And yes, I still feel bitter.
I will always remember…
I will remember
I will remember.
