I remember

I remember when I was 10
I made friends with the new boy in our class
I told my teacher about our great friendship and she laughed
But I was convinced he would be the best man at my wedding
We don't even talk when we meet now

I remember when I was 13
I met a girl who I really liked
I told my mom about her and she laughed
But I was hellbent that we were going to make it forever
We didn't make it even a month

I remember when I was 16
I had a sip of my first cider
I told my friends that I will never and they laughed
But I was hellbent that I would never change my mind
We got pretty wasted the next weekend

I remember when I was 19
I finished my first uni exam
I told my girl that I might not make it and she laughed
But I was convinced that was the end of my journey
We both got a first in our respective courses

I remember when I was 22
I started writing a book
I told myself that I won't make it sad and I laughed
But I was hellbent on making it happy
Well...
