Remember

Remember the screaming
The yelling and the holes
Punched in walls everywhere

Remember

Remember the drugs
The pill containers
And empty bottles

Remember

Remember the cops
The ambulance and
The wailing sirens

Remember

Remember the walls
Pure white along with
The bright lights of the hospital

Remember

Remember the court room
The wooden benches and
The tall ceilings

Remember

Remember the warmth
Of the arms and the safe feeling
With your new family

Remember

Remember your protected now
Remember you won't be hurt
Remember you aren't them

Remember
