Do you remember...
when we were younger, you played rough...
...and I always cried when you did?
I was a fragile child.
And you, always the toughest.
.x.
Do you remember ...
when Mom bought us those action figures...
...and I played with Kairi's dolls instead?
I "accidently" threw the figurines into the ocean.
And nothing else was said about it.
.x.
Do you remember...
when you used to play blitzball with Wakka...
...and House with me?
I do have bad hand-eye coordination.
But I so desperately wanted to play Doctor.
.x.
Do you remember...
when you said you liked video games...
...and I hugged my stuffed animals?
I always liked the pink penguin the most.
It's the one you gave me.
.x.

Do you remember...
when you grew into a strong teen...
...and I only grew weaker?
I was pathetically feminine.
And you, incredibly muscular.
.x.

Do you remember...
when you tried out for football...
...and I joined the sewing club?
I 'sprained my ankle' that day.
And I had no other choice.
.x.
Do you remember...
when you used to go to the arcade...
...and I went shopping with Kairi?
No one else would go with her.
But that doesn't mean I didn't enjoy myself.
.x.
Do you remember...
when you and Kairi found those fashion magazines...
...and I said that my mother accidentally put them there?
I never met for anyone else to see them.
I pulled them out in the middle of the night.
.x.
Do you remember...
when you said that you wanted to go home...
...and I wanted to stay and watch the sunset?
I never told you that sunsets were so romantic.
And that my heart stops every time.
.x.
Do you remember...
when you used to force me on dates...
...and I never even got to first base?
It's not like the girls didn't like me.
I just wasn't sure if I liked them.
.x.
Do you remember...
when you locked me in the closet with Kairi
...and I was supposed to kiss her?
There was a constant two feet between us.
My lips never touched hers.
.x.
Do you remember...
when you noticed that I started acting weird...
...and I said that nothing was wrong?
Something was very wrong.
It was you I liked.
.x.
Do you remember...
when you used to go to parties...
...and I stayed in my room to do homework?
I couldn't stay focused on any of it.
I was thinking about you the whole time.
.x.
Do you remember...
when you fell asleep on me...
...and I wrapped my arms around you?
I never told you that your skin gives me chills.
And your hair is the softest I've ever touched.
.x.
.x.
.x.

Do you remember...
when you became so popular over those many years...
...and I never had a real girlfriend?
There was a reason why I never got close.
And I finally thought to tell you about it.
.x.
.x.
.x.
.x.
Do you remember...
when you said you liked a girl...
... and I said I liked a guy?
Kairi was surprisingly quite happy.
But I can never forget that look you gave me.
.x.
Do you remember...
when you were caught with a girl by me...
...and I was caught watching gay porn by you?
I got over the fact that you burned those tapes.
But never the things you screamed at my face.
.x.
Do you remember...
when you found my confession letter to you...
...and I watched you tear it up?
I gathered the bits from around the room.
And I taped the pieces back together.
.x.
Do you remember...
when you called me horrible names...
...and I got the same from the entire school?
I was never seen there again,
No matter how much Kairi banged on my door.
.x.
Do you remember...
when you said you didn't want to be my friend...
...and I couldn't be seen with you?
I was such a defect that those years of being together...
...didn't matter now.
.x.
Do you remember...
when you had your friends kick my sides...
...and I was there to take the beating?
They all laughed in my face.
It was just yesterday.
.x.
Do you remember...
when you said you'd make my life a living hell...
...and I said that it already was?
Still, you kept your word.
You managed to make it worse.
.x.
Do you remember...
when you looked up from this letter...
...and I was dead in your bedroom?
I just really wanted to say:
Happy Fucking Birthday.
