Do you know what I remember?
I remember looking to gorgeous blue eyes
I didn't remember what you wore
Or how you wore it
I remember just seeing my best friend
You had leaves all stuck in your hair
And you had tore my shirt
But I could see it right then
You were comfortable
I remember the boy who had blue eyes
Who I loved instantly
I remember the boy who would always protect me
the boy who I would joke with,
the long winter days
And the cool winter nights
I remember the boy who gave his love to me
On a random Wednesday summer afternoon
Because I begged
I needed it
I remember everything important
Not what you wore
Not what you got on tests
Not what colors your binders were
None of that
I remember the day you left
The day I cried
I remember the leaves flowing around
And the sun beating down on my back
I remember standing there
Wondering
If you would ever come back
I remember you loved black
When I loved blue
You loved to scream
And I loved to listen
You'd amaze me with your skill
And then act like it was nothing
I remember how you spoke Spanish
With that smooth tenor
And played trumpet
And sang
I remembered it all
On the cool black gravel
Just waiting for you to turn around
I remember
