Don't you Remember?

What can I say, I love you

 

Don’t you remember?

When we used to smile together

And walk aimlessly for no reason?

 

Don’t you remember?

Our foolish games

 As we continued on.

 

Don’t you remember?

It took us so long to get here

From the first time you uttered ‘I love you’.

 

Don’t you remember?

That I said I could wait

That I tried my best to be there.

 

Don’t you remember?

That morning you told me

That there was nothing wrong.

 

Don’t you remember?

All the movies we tried to watch

But never made it through.

 

Don’t you remember?

The time you took those silly pictures

As I tried to take your phone.

 

Don’t you remember?

When you told me

‘I don’t think I want anymore ex-girlfriends’.

 

Don’t you remember?

That I was scared to love you at first

And then I fell in to deep.

 

Don’t you remember…

Will you ever remember…

That no matter what you’re going through

I still love you.

[ah]

beautifully written, thanx for sharing it with me, great write, thanx for asking me to read it, keep writing

[Joseph - Michael]

Yeah, everybody would say anything at first when they don't reliaze that they don't mean it (or worse, they just say it to use us for something) and later on, they just forget. I hated that...

But, it's a really good writing there...

[Nicholas Hallows]

'Captures the "scared/anxious/crazy" feelings of love quite perfectly.' - I agree. I can relate to this poem really clearly. Shows the support of the other person in a relationship when their partner may be going through trying times very well. A touching write. NH

Captures the "scared/anxious/crazy" feelings of love quite perfectly. The repetiton is great as well. A wonderful piece. :)

[Tamme]

I could feel your emotions through this and loved the reminiscent quality of this.

[Requiem]

Hmmm. You leave a part of the story unsaid. Were the two people broken up and he/she was fighting for him to remember all the great times together?

[Darian]

This was fantastic! Very cool. I liked the repetiton of the phrase "Don't you remember"; it pulls you into the piece. :)

[PhoeniX]

loved it!

I thought this poem was very good. Relays the backstory while unravelling the actual point. Nice job.
