Forget

I wish I could forget...

forget all the tears and pain,

forget all the hurt and shame,

forget all the things of my past,

because like most, they didn't last. 

Forget the memories of your face.

It's wrapped around my heart like intricate lace. 

Forget all the times you made me mad,

but I would have to forget all fun we had.

I want to forget the joy you made me feel,

the joy that, to me, felt so real. 

I want to forget the grip you had on my heart,

a grip so tight that it broke us apart. 

I want to forget the tears that I still cry,

because I see you in their eyes. 

I want want to forget everything about you. 

I dont want to have a clue.

I want to forget everything in my past,

because if I don't,

I know my future will pass.
