The Big Moments

The Big Moments
For as long as I can remember the big moments mattered the most
YOU NEVER MISSED A BIG MOMENT
First day of school
8th bridge building contest
Homecoming Parade and Court
Tears after not winning
Driver’s License
Scholarship ball
High school Graduation
Car accident with Friends
College Orientation
First Daughters Wedding
Moving in to the Dorm (sophomore year)
College Graduation
First big job
First Apartment
You were always there for the BIG moments
Middle school insecurities
I just don’t get fractions
My teachers think I act out because you are not here
The guidance counselor thinks I don’t do my homework on purpose; she is right
I talk back when I think you do not understand
High school low self esteem
I would rather not be here feeling so invisible
Abandon safety
Unsure of self
No sense of trust
I’m shy, Afraid to love, Unattached, Guarded
I love to laugh
My favorite colors are blue and black
I don’t like scary movies
I long to love and be loved back
I could ramble on and on but the point is there is so much more to me than the big moments sometimes I get sad thinking of small moments but then I realized those small moment you missed hold more value because I have grown to hold on to the
Big moments
For as long as I can remember the big moments mattered the most
YOU NEVER MISSED A BIG MOMENT

  1. Yeah....the small moments lead up to the big ones even though we sometimes wish a presence at all of them.
