    What I Do Remember

    I do remember me and my sister on our porch, having a lot of fun, laughing and playing. I do remember when I went to the store with my mom, sister, and grandmother. Then coming back home and seeing my step-grandfather lying dead. I was 8 years old. This is something that I won’t forget from my childhood. I most definitely remember spending a night at the hospital on a school night with my grandmother while she was sick with a liver problem. Then I remember getting a phone call saying my grandmother had passed. This is what I do remember.

    What I Want to Remember

    I want to remember when I first walked, cried, sung. My first friend. I won’t remember everything, and, to me, it’s not about sharing memories with my friends—it’s about knowing who I am. I want to know how much I’ve grown in 15 years.

  • STING

    by DONTASIA

    I remember when me and my
    grandmother were sitting on
    the porch just chilling.
    ten mins later I got stung by a
    bee. it hurt so bad I was
    crying and telling my
    grandma to “get the bee out!”
    she told me to hold up while
    she went upstairs. When she was
    upstairs I started singing
    a lyric from the song
    “all in my head” to keep my mind
    off the sting in my arm.
    grandma came down the stairs
    with a cigarette and did
    what she had to do. I felt so much
    better and kept singing to myself
    “all in my head, it’s all in my head.”
