~I Remember~
by kory
I remember riding in cars and never reaching the floor.
I remember watching the world pass by and blur through the next.
I remember sleeping outside and having the soft, thick grass underneath me.
I remember Christine and jumping ropes, skates, and the nothing.
I remember a friendly face and chocolate tootsie rolls and weathered soft
hands.
I remember paralyzing quiet and the false comfort of the sun.
I remember the smoking hay and a deep breath and a shaky calm.
I remember the big bay windows and sun-bathed wood floor.
�.I remember.
