Forgotten

Breathing in
Breath out
Breath.

Inhale.
Exhale. 


They say
That's what it's all about.


I don’t want to remember
I just can’t bear to remember


Your face
Your laugh


Our memories
My loss.


I see your face
The ghost of you


Every day I live
Everywhere I go


The memories grow..
More vivid everyday

When I walk..

Down the street

I think I see your figure

I think I see your shadow


Why can’t it just be?
Just like it was before


The sharp knives of reality
Have torn us apart before


We should get over..
The new scars that break us



To try to relive
To try to mend


The days of our glory
The moment of our youth
The time of our lives
The age of our splendor



I know it may be time
To let you go


I just want
The shadow of you

To become true


The ghost of your love
Haunts me time from time


When I discover
The memories that we shared


Buried in my heart
From that age


I just don’t want to let go..
Of the love I thought we had


Of the love we might have


I think we could have shared..


What is left
Of the ruins
Of that love


Is a broken hearted girl
Trying to mend the scars


Still living
With the shadow


Haunting from that love
Reappearing


Making it even harder
To forget of our love.
