Do you remember tiptoeing into a very mildewy kitchen, to steal rock salt from a flimsy red bag in the fridge? I Do.

Do you remember jumping off the bunk bed, to land on the one below,having so much fun hanging from the ceiling fixtures like a monkey would? I Do. Do you remember lying on your back on the cold marble table, with the rotating center, making yourself spin round and round, your fingertips grazing the chilly stone, thinking about things 5 year olds do? I Do. Do you remember the crack of a whip on your back, the gritted teeth and the small tears for mercy...one hanging unpleasantly off the tip of your nose? I Do.

Do you remember being locked in the bathroom, in the dark, thrown in so your head hit the edge of the toilet bowl, with your tears pressing up on the inside of your eyelids, and flashes of colour danced with the pain? I Do. Do you remember the shooting stars, showering down on a cold autumn night, when you found the hailstone, made a nest, thinking you'd found the world's greatest treasure, only to find it melted by morning? I Do. Do you remember the wooden floor, where you lay, and drew grainy pictures of people and things, with a gorgeous set of crayons you knew would not last? I Do. Do you remember...(To Be Continued)

i remember falling in love with someone that i can now not live without, whose smiles not just light up the room but right inside my heart and i remember listening to her sneeze and hiccup like it was the most important thing in the world. i remember her making me the happiest person
