Remember

by nicole larrabee

If there ever comes a day I'm not around,
Please remember the girl you thought was lost,
But was really found.

Please remember the times we laughed and played.

The times you would have cared enough to say,

Please don't go, and I would have stayed.

Remember the way you used to think about me.

You used to care enough to call.

But you forgot. And what it's done, you can't see.

You forgot who I am inside.

You forgot how I love.

You forgot all the right things,

And have instead replaced them with pride.

You pushed me away, out of mind, out of sight.

Do you know how much you actions,

Have kept me up at night?

The pain inside comes from you.

Do you not realize what you do?

Do you not see what you've done?

You fueled my self hate, and it grew.

Remember me.
