I Think About

I think about the time When I had no worries No responsibilities And no choices I think about the time When my only care Was going to school And then coming home To sing along with my music I think about the time When I met you At the town fair You grasped my hand And entranced me I think about the time When you handed me a strawberry And got on your knees To hear an, ‘I do’ I think about the time We walked down the aisle You were 18 and I, 16 Promising forever I think about the time Our son was born Big blue eyes And features that resemble you I think about the time We lost our baby When driving home And the doctor said He was sorry I think about the time Not long after When our daughter was born And erased the pain We’d endured A bundle of pure joy I think about the time We packed all our bags Moved from our old place To our new home And still, we reside I think about the time We suffered emotionally Almost giving up On our relationship But we were stronger than that Nothing could tear us apart Each moment in time Has been a passing one Emotions built up and Memories made I think about those times And it makes me appreciate Everything I’ve been through Because without those thoughts My mind would be An empty vessel Those moments made me What I am today
