Let Go

Your carelessness has swallowed me whole,
Destroying my love for you as it takes its toll.
I've completely lost you, or so it seems,
Silently, you slip away from my sleepless dreams.

The memories I have come to dread,
Are locked away inside my head.
Sickened, with a cure-less disease,
I fall into our memories.

The times we shared, so wonderful-yet so lost,
Begin, of course, with the very first frost.
Attraction had struck us dumb,
Though knowing you was soon to come.

My love for you had begun to bloom,
And with it, approached its doom.
Gone away to paradise, we grew apart,
My body left without its heart.

Every word was left unsaid,
Meaningless now, completely dead.
And now, without you, my heart is aching,
Though if not for you, it wouldn't be breaking.

So in my memory you will stay,
Though not forever as you slowly fade away.
The times we lost, so beautiful-yet rare,
End, of course, with one long, last stare.

Your carelessness has swallowed me whole,
Destroying my love for you as it takes its toll.
I've completely lost you, or so it seems,
Silently, you slip away from my sleepless dreams.
