MomentsA Poem by Megan E TwenterDo you remember what it felt like when you were but a child and you'd meet a cute boy and try your hardest not to smile You'd tell everyone you liked him and THEN ask for his name write him notes, stuffed in his locker without an ounce of shame You'd wear your cutest clothes And you'd always looks your best You'd find out all his classes and knew in which halls you'd pass Do you remember the first time you thought you were in love It felt like you were choking on all the little stuff The first kiss you had dreamt of awkward, full of nerves and you laugh about it now but back then it was the worst Do you remember the first time in love you actually fell and you swore you'd never feel this way for anybody else The fights they came and went and the struggles felt like death and everytime you saw them it stole your every last breath The first time someone touched you and you felt like you could puke cause you had never been so close everything was all too new Then came the ending with broken phones and shredded letters all the texts you thought of sending but knew not to would be better The months of your heart aching every guy you saw you'd hate It literally felt like it was breaking No use for the duct tape Do you remember the years searching for the one to make you sweat in your palms, your heart racing but when looking, never met And when you finally stopped searching when you'd let go of the rope your "game" had just stopped working Everyone single one, told nope Do you remember that moment when you knew you fell in love do you remember that nauseas feeling when you had thought you'd given up I remember that moment as if only a day ago when you look them in the eye and your heart already knows I knew I loved that feeling the first time that it came but it was lit, then burnt out quick like an old trick candle flame But I dont know this feeling that's consuming me inside out for falling in love with you I have no single doubt But I cant say Ive felt this when my heart just doesnt beat and my words begin to twist fall to my clumsy feet And I cant keep staring as if though my eyes are broken and the thoughts in my head blaring and my heart is cut right open I cant catch my breath when you walk into the room I miss every step when Im walking right towards you I cant speak in English Ive forgotten my own name when I want to talk to you the jibberish sounds the same I cant grasp a single thought Cause I can barely think For my heartbeat is pounding in my head Those words are on the brink I can say I remember when I knew that you were mine because this is right now until the end of time I wont tell you that I love you I wont tell you what I want I wont tell you that I need you I wont tell you what I sought I will tell you that you're wonderful I will tell you that you're kind I will you that you're everything I'll tell the world you're mine I cant tell you that Im not inlove with you Because I cannot tell a lie But I will tell you that you're perfect As long as you give me that smile Do you remember when you kissed me and looked me in the eyes and told me I was everything It took me by surprise I know that I'll remember the first time your hand fit mine and since that moment, since that day I know I'll never leave your side
