Just Stop


Stop

Just Stop

Stop finding your way back into my thoughts, Stop the memories of what was and the dreams of would could have been and let them dissolve away.

Stop being the first and last person that I think about every day.  

Please stop showing your face in every person I look at.

Stop the images of your smile and laughter trigger out of no where

Stop the longing for your warm embrace and the calming smell of your scent.

Stop the unbearable nights of wanting to be near you, protect you, hold you, and love you.

Stop the way you make me feel, like I can’t live without you and if you die first I would die of a broken heart.

Stop

Just Stop

I have to just stop

But what I will never stop doing is praying for you; your happiness, success, and family. May they be blessed.

Wondering about you, how you been, what you are doing, if you still look the same as I remember.

Loving you, past your negative words, past your secrets, past flaws, past physical appearance but t love you to your soul.

I still have to stop

Just stop

But I can’t because to stop means I have to forget.

I can’t forget how it feels to be complete so I can’t forget about you.

So I can’t, I can’t, I can’t

Just Stop
