I Forgot

For a split second I was joyful mesmerized by something far less painful For a moment there I was serene captivated by something less tortuous to be seen For the blink of an eye I escaped the wrath that your actions caused me I jumped the path For a heartbeat I didn't think of you what you did to yourself that you can never undo Now I remember The anguish has my insides in a knot But for a moment one pitiful, free, and calm moment I forgot
