I really liked this poem! I found it relatable and I thought it was a great idea that each stanza was a different memory yet throughout the poem you hold one emotion: remembrance which was probably your goal. Excellent job! :)
This is too cute. It reminds me of the song "That Time" by Regina Spektor. I like this also because it's more a response, it's not a creation of something that wasn't there--it was there and it was tangible. I liked this.
As people at my school would say, "TOO CUTE!" I don't think I've seen a love poem handled quite so well by just a guy before. :) Well done. I only had one quibble with your wording -
"Remember that time
That you rescued a bird
And could never say goodbye?
[I helped you to.]"
If you say never, it means that the guy couldn't have possibly helped her to say goodbye, because, well, it was... never.
This made me smile. The things in parenthesis really added depth and feeling. I love the flow of this. My favorite paragraph was:
"Remember that time
We first meant to kiss
When your parents interrupted?
[We just kissed the next day.]"

Otherwise, it's wonderful. So adorable.
