Remember the Day

Remember The Day?

From the day we met,
I could feel our ever-lasting bond
It was day one at the new school,
Remember how nervous we were
When we were introduced to our
New teachers, classroom and classmates?
Remember the tears of
laughter we shed
During break, imitating teachers,
Getting folk to join in?
You said you would always be there
When I needed you most
To guide, lead and protect me.

Ever since the cold December,
I wander the streets
Crying your name and to come
And take the pain away
It wasnt fair and it wasnt right.
You were only 15.
Sometimes I visit the spot
Where it happened
And the memories come flooding back
I can still see the marks
On the road, where you lay,
And were taken from me,
That very day.
