Things to Remember
By Bryson
That awkward, lonely, lost girl is leaving
And in her place
Arrives an awkward, confused boy
But he’s less lonely
And there’s hope in his heart now
And he’s freer
And when he sees himself
He’s filled with light
You know
He’s still afraid
He’s still unsure
But he’s driven forward
By the knowledge that he never
Wants to be that lonely girl again
Because she was so sad
And almost every day
She felt that she might break
She was tearing herself apart
And she never understood why
It was like there was poison inside
And she felt so sick and rotten
But he doesn’t feel like that
He is so much calmer
Feels so much more at home in himself
And when he’s afraid
That is what he has to remember
