~ remember ~


Remember when we used to play wedding, and I was always the groom?
Remember when we used to play princess, and I was lady-in-waiting?
Remember when you took the cookies from the jar, and tried to blame it on me?
Remember when our brother was born, and you got to hold him first?
Do you remember?

Remember when the boys used to tease me, and you were there to call them names?
Remember when all those times we broke curfew, and had to cover for one another?
Remember all those Halloween parties we planned together,
and how everyone said how much fun they'd had?
Remember the first time my heart was broken, and you held me until I couldn't cry anymore?
Do you remember?

Remember the other day when you left, and I didn't cry? Not in front of you, anyway.
I realize now that there were some things I should have said. I hope it's not too late.

I want you to know that in real life, I may not be the groom anymore,

but I would never miss your wedding.
You may never be a princess, but I'll always be your right hand man.
If you feel a craving for cookies, come on over, we'll have a party.
And someday, when I have my own children, I'll let you hold them first.
If the boys ever tease you, call me up, I'll hunt them down.
If someday your kids ever break curfew, I'll sit up with you all night till they get home.
Maybe we're too old for Halloween, but I'd love to help you plan your baby shower someday.
And if your heart is ever broken, I promise I'll hold you until you can't cry anymore.
I promise I'll always be there for you
