That blinding smile which used to brighten my day,
Piercing eyes that saw the truth in my soul,
Laughter that subjugated even the darkest of my heart’s shadows,
A mind that always managed to inspire my passions,
I need to forget you.
Moments pass like hours when you near me with your elegance,
Your voice rings with melodious resonance in my ears,
Though these memories I have only bring the strains of sorrow to my heart,
Every minute I feel the sting of this heartache,
The force of a black hole’s gravity bringing me to my knees,
Like falling down a waterfall,
There is no way for me to tether myself and climb,
My own whirlpool dragging me down into a fathomless abyss.
This shell which I have spent so long to construct,
Crumbles as I try to tell you the truth of my pain,
These feelings are not new to me but still break me down,
And I wish that they would just vanish from my soul,
It kills me especially when I know I could never have you.
I wish I was strong enough to forget you,
I wish I wasn’t as weak as everyone knows I am,
I need to forget this unnecessary pain,
I need to forget all the stupid things I have done because of you,
I need to forget who I am just this once,
I need to forget being weak,
I need to go back to hiding in my shell,
I need to forget my strong feelings for you!
