I can't forget

I remember when Summer days would never end. When the sun was our friend, and our friends lived down the road.  When we woke up at 8 and felt fine. 

I remember water fights and forts and Pokemon battles and valentines day cards. And the love notes. The love notes that meant something.

I remember getting the last star in Super Mario 64, and beating bowser for the 5th time. It never got old.

I remember my first PG 13 movie. It was spiderman. I was in love with mary jane. And I closed my eyes at the kiss scene.

I remember trick or treating for 4 hours with my best friend. I lost half my candy but it didn't matter, because the memories meant more. The haunted house, the dares, the leg cramps, the crunched leaves.

I remember when my sisters were home. I remember monday nights.  I remember when my brother came home for Christmas. I remember being happy.
