Remember

Remember how we strengthened each out not how we failed

Remember how we glowed not how we paled

Remember how we healed, how we grew

Remember every trial we made it through

Remember it was real, how it was pure and true

Remember it was everything, how no one had a clue

Remember all you learned, not this current pain

Remember all the good, and all you the gain

Remember it was love, not some silly game

Remember it was wild, not something tame

Remember who we were way back when

Remember all the places we have been

Remember the promises, the things we would do

And there wouldn’t be the me today without you

Almost 50 year old dad of a 5 year old.

5 year old: Want to play tag?

Brain: sounds fun

Inner child: He has no idea how I will destroy him.

Hamstring: we haven’t stretched in 3 weeks.

Back: listen, that m’fer is going to make you carry his tired, whiny ass to bed and we can’t do that bent over like a geriatric porn star. Sit you stupid ass down and hold his water bottle.
