Remember

Remember the fight

Remember the time

Remember the pain

Remember the nightmares

Remember the lost friends

Remember the familiar faces fade away

Remember the patience it took

Remember the shaking

Remember the headaches

Remember the paralysis

Remember the embarrassment

Remember the stiffness

Remember the chronic soreness

Remember the sleepless nights

Remember the eternal confusion

Remember the Oblivion 

Remember the unbearable mornings

Remember what you had to give away

Remember the sickness

Remember the rape.

Now remember me,

Remember my face,

Remember my eyes,

Remember my beautiful feet,

Remember my skin,

Remember my paintings,

Remember my poetry,

Remember my strength,

Remember my voice singing April Wine,

Remember my shaking hands,

Remember my sympathy,

Remember all of my soul,

Remember my relentless heart,

every wound inside me,

smiling on the outside.

Remember that I am a rare diamond,

 Now tell me

        it was all for nothing.
