Home Cannot Be Forgotten

A house is a building made out of stone. My home is a place where I really belong. I know my body has left. My heart will never. These memories will always linger… I still remember building our snowmen in the backyard. My sister and I, We named them Taylor and Kai. I lost my first tooth in the bathroom when I was five, My mother told me not to cry, I fell asleep on my bed, but the next morning under my pillow 2 dollars laid I couldn't help it, I just hoorrayed. I used to run down the hallway away from my mother, So I didn't have to shower, She'd still catch me and I'd have to give in, I didn't mind but we had fun. I never felt lonely, I never felt scared, My home was full of people who cared. Thanksgiving dinners when the turkey is always off. We still laugh, we have enough.. The Christmas mornings when presents never matter. in the living room we still shared laughter.. Though it never really worked. We still had hope, We still had fun, even when my dad said a pun. Racing my sister to the kitchen for the last piece of pie. I knew I would win but I'd slow down, just to see her grin. From my first steps to my first day at school. I knew I looked like a fool. With my sunglasses on I knew I ruled! All these moments are still fresh in my mind. As I get older and things are starting to change, I wish someone would tell me, how I can forget these memories? How I can say goodbye to the place I've known my whole life?
