If You Don’t Know Me By Now

If you don’t know me by now, it’s probably because you didn’t hear when I said I love video games, or when I said how much my brother makes me smile as broad as the rising sun. If you don’t know me by now, it’s probably because you didn’t hear me when I said Dr. Pepper is my favorite soda, or when I said that math is my favorite subject. No, you must not have heard when I said I love music: hip hop or pop, country or rock; it doesn’t matter to me as long as I can listen freely. If you don’t know me by now, it is probably because you didn’t hear me when I said how much I love my brother as he walks and talks playing on the sidewalk. If you don’t know me by now, you probably didn’t hear when I said how much I love books: long or short, I’ll read it. If you don’t know me by now, it’s probably because you didn’t hear me when I said how much I love movies: horror or comedy action or sci-fi; I’ll watch it. If you don’t know me by now, it is probably because you didn’t hear me when I said how much I love my family and friends. No, if you don’t know me by now, you probably don’t know just how much I say…
