i remember
i remember them laughing day i took a risk of love, and got rejected
i remember them refusing to include me in sports because they said i looked like a girl
i remember them asking why i didn't buy normal clothes, mocking my over worn seats and tee
i remember them throwing a ball at my face because i stood to close to their group
i remember them mocking anyone who ever became close to me, until i had no friends save one
i remember them telling the teacher they didn't want to sit with me because i was "weird"
i remember them picking partners for a project, feverishly wondering whether i would be alone again
i remember them calling me a nerd for being right then the next day calling me stupid for being wrong
i remember them convincing my only friend to turn his back on me
i remember them watching, laughing, as i walked alone, crying because i had no-one left
i remember being sad
i remember
i remember going home, filling my stomach with pills, hoping to die
i remember being rushed to the emergency room by shocked parents, wondering what they did wrong
i remember waking up the next morning, realizing i'm the ultimate failure, unable to even end myself
i remember going to school, once again walking alone, thinking about what i can do to end the pain
i remember being desperate
i remember
i remember him saying something to me, and being prepared for an insult
i remember him talking to me like a friend, something that hadnt been done in years
i remember him introducing me to his friends, forcing them to like me
i remember him showing me music, clothes, a lifestyle that seemed unreal
i remember him offering me anything i wanted, buying me lunch when i went without food
i remember him taking me around town, places id never been and only heard of
i remember him being my friend, when no-one else would
i remember being hopeful
i remember
i remember myself learning how to talk, walk, act, and acheive
i remember myself making friends, becoming known, liked, loved
i remember myself being welcome wherever i went
i remember myself never being mocked, never hated, never insulted, and never bullied
i remember myself picking the ones who played sports
i remember myself being looked up to, respected
i remember myself looking at my former bullies, remembering their taunting
i remember myself being stronger, smarter, and more popular than my former bullies
i remember myself seeing the small things that made life worthwhile, and loving them unconditionally
i remember being happy
