Be strong?
Gentle?
Proud?
Of what?
Explain to me…
I always thought that there would be something we would all look forward to… and some memory that we’d always keep with us forever…
And every time things got too hard to bear, I could just shut my eyes and think of that one day… and everything would be fine… but…
I can’t remember…
I
can’t remember any part of that…
Who I was… What it meant… Nothing…
It’s hurtful… to think that there was a time when everythin mattered so much… and when a single word could brighten up the day… and make even the darkest skies seem beautiful…
There must have been a day like that… right?...
Then… Why can’t I remember?
Why is it so far away?
I remember… when it rained… and I’d sit outside waiting… for something to make it all better… but nothing ever did…
No matter how long I waited…
I know there was a time when all that mattered was everyone close to me being happy…
When did I settle for safe?
When did I decide that was more important?
Why can’t I remember?
I want to…
But I’m so afraid… of remembering… because I’ve tried so hard to forget…
I must have my reasons right?
We all do…
Always…
But still, some days… when it rains… I find myself waiting…
And I still don’t know for what…
