I remember

I remember the day I first saw you
I remember our first kiss
I remember the first morning I woke in your arms
Those are the memories I will miss

I remember the day we got married
I remember when we bought our first home
I remember when we graduated from college
And started to make a life of our own

I remember the birth of our first child
I remember the birth of the second and third
I remember how we you used to make me compete
With those three little words

I remember the first night you didn’t come home
I remember the look in your eyes
I remember the days when your touches were cold
Those memories echo in my cries

I remember the look on her face
when I walked through that door
I remember how you blamed me
That is a pain I cannot ignore

I remember begging and pleading
I remember trying to fight
I remember how I pledged my love
How my world fell apart overnight
