I Remember

I remember this little thing called love.

You know? Where you fall head over heals for this "certain someone".

I remember how dumbstruck I was over you.

I remember that one night,

That night when I met you.

It was during the Summer of '09,

When our eyes first met.

How we were both shy,

Okay, I remember that it was just me, not you.

How gorgeous you were, and still are.

Your black, silky hair.

Your red, luscious lips.

Your deep, brown eyes.

I remember how you caught me off guard,

How I just stood there speechless, not knowing what to say.

I remember how we became good friends,

How we started hanging out,

Getting to know each other better.

I remember our first date,

How we cuddled watching "Nacho Libre".

We both knew that it was a stupid movie,

But it was the only movie we had at the time.

You didn't care though,

You just giggled.

I still remember that,

Wondering how we even managed to cuddle.

How I felt the warmth of your body, brush the cold off of mine.

I remember the night we almost kissed,

How you teased me,

And ended up hugging.

I remember how sarcastic you were,

With that glimmer in your eyes.

How you always made me laugh,

Even on those "days".

I remember how everything was great,

Thinking it would stay like this forever.

Then, Summer came to an end.

We both went back to school.

I wondered what had happened.

I wondered if you & me were still "we".

I remember getting invited to your friends Birthday party.

How I was so happy to see you again.

I remember wearing your favorite color, purple, just for you.

I remember the look of your face when we saw each other,

How glad we both were.

We started dancing, and time seemed to stand still.

Then, I saw how the look on your face changed.

It was brighter, giddy with more joy.

But, it wasn't towards me,

It was towards "him".

I remember how you started dancing with him,

Leaving me, standing there in bewilderment.

I remember how you came back to me,

We started to dance again.

I thought he was just a friend of your's.

I remember seeing that look in your eyes,

There was no glimmer.

There was uncertainty.

I remember how the party ended.

You ended up walking off with him.

I remember that one night,

That night you broke my heart.
