The Outsiders Imagines

I remeber when (creative writing)

Hers something from my class

I remember when I believed in rainbows, butterflies, and happy times.

When I was five I remember him pulling the needle out, he was a bloody mess.

When I was ten we was annoyed by the man who forgot my name.

When I was twelve, those where the dark days when my grandfather went away, and the regret began.

I remember when my Grandfather was ill and stubborn.

I believe that yesterday was the first time, in a long one, where I let him creep into my thoughts.

I wish I hadn't looked at his terrified complexion that one last time.

I remember him sitting always in the corner of the room.

I cannot remember the sound of his voice when we taught him the only word he knew in English, bacon.

I cannot remember his eyes filled with amusement and life, I wish I could.

I want to remember being his granddaughter.

I remember the day my grandmother's sunshine was taken away, leaving her with grey skies.

My parents remember solely the humorous and joyful memories that keep him alive.

But I remember the hospitals, the nurses, and the urgency.

I know that his time was long overdue.

I remember as sad as she was, relief washed over her as the love of her life couldn't be touched by the monster of pain any longer.
