Snow Day Away

do you remember on that day
when it was snowing and everything was white
i was sitting on a bench with nothing but a shirt and a ragged pair oh pants on
i think i was crying;
yeah because i found out you were leaving
i had ran out my house not knowing what to say
i ran and ran till i didn't know where to go anymore
as i felt the cold snow mush between my toes
i faintly realized that i didn't know where i was
i remember just standing there letting my tears flow freely
all of my emotion swimming around my head made me feel a little bit dizzy
i turned my head to see a little bench covered in snow
i slowly made my way over to it
as i sat down it suddenly felt as though time had stopped it self
i found my self getting tired and sleep over taking my small body and my eyelids becoming heavy
and that's when it happened
as i was about fall over on the bench
i felt your warm arms wrap around me , as you tried to shake me awake telling me
'stay awake, stay with me'
but weren't you the one who was leaving me
i think i remember you crying ..maybe
as i finally opened my eyes
i reached up my small digits to touch your chub e red cheek
'your going to catch a cold'
i say as i look into your eyes
you choke back a sob and said
'It'd be you fault if i did you idiot, what were you thinking running out here with out a coat or shoes , I'm shocked your not dead'
you said in a laughing tone ,but i can see the worry in your eyes
now it was my turn to let out a sob , not that it mattered i was already crying a little more couldn't hurt ,not if it was for you
'why do you have to go away'
is what i said but i really want to say is 'don't leave me behind'
' it's for my papa's job we have to move over seas for a while but I'll be back in three years'
you said , it kind of funny how those three year turned into eight
'i don't know that a long time you may even forget me'
i say with a pout
'DON'T! don't ever say that i would never ever forget you'
i think that was my first time ever hearing you yell
i had sat there tears all dried up just looking at you , and letting your voice float in the air
'i...i wont ever leave you ever you have my word as a man'
i would have laughed backed then at that you a man we were hardly eight yet
and at that moment you showed how much of a man you were
as you pressed your cold chapped lips on to mine
i think at that moment i was the first human to feel what heaven was like while i was still alive
