This poem was inspired by a writing exercise that we did in class. The exercise that we did was kind of based on the "2500 Things About Me Too" crossed with truth or dare questions. So I wrote this one and I like where it's going so far, and I was wondering what you guys think of it!
It's called "Every Memory With You is a Good One" and here it goes:
Do you remember the first time you reached for my hand?
Don't leave me alone when I meet your family.
Have I given you butterflies recently?
Go swimming with me, I won't let your head go under.
Do you wanna dance with me around the kitchen while we let supper burn?
Stare at the stars with me in the bed of your truck.
Do you remember when we went camping and we couldn't find a camp ground so we set up the tent in your back-yard?
Make popcorn with me and have a movie marathon all night even though you'll be out before the first movie is even done.
Can we get lost on a drive again, with a Blink 182 CD playing, and the sunshine melting our slurpees?
Let me paint sunsets with you as my canvas.
Do you want to build a fort in the living room?
Sing to me when you're happy, and insist that I dance with you.
Can we buy more bubble bath?
Let me pick a movie to watch and let me nap on you instead of watching it.
Can we go play mini golf again, even though you always win?
Surprise me with a picnic for my birthday.
Are you excited to go home?
Let's go home.
There wasn't really a set number of lines that I went for, I just went with whatever felt right. I hope you guys like it!
