Do you remember when
a blue furry monster,
with eyes that were blood-shot red,
that you definitely heard growl,
hid under your bed?
Do you remember when
mommy told you the tooth fairy
wasn't real and you ended up
swearing to never eat another meal?
Do you remember when
pink was for princesses,
bedazzled in glitter glue
and blue was for boys who
the girls always booed?
Do you remember when
zombies were alive, or
when the world would fall to doom
if you couldn't find a safe spot to hide?
Do you remember when
lying was committing a crime
or, when you'd fall asleep to any
old nursery rhyme?
Do you remember
laughing at almost everything
and making up songs, you'd merrily
dance to and sing?
Do you remember
using all your crayons to make daddy a birthday card?
Do you remember when things
weren't this hard...
Do you remember
the last time you saw a butterfly and
actually started chasing it?
When you wasted hours
picking flowers under the
yellow sunset?
If you do remember,
then promise me one thing:
You will never forget :)
