What we forgot

Walking down through the forgotten mist,
Where the memories have forever lied,
Remembering every furious wave that hasn't eased,
Remembering what has never died.

Every step that I take,
Will forever be forgotten,
Every mistake that I make,
Will be remembered as rotten.

Empty are all the windows,
There is a lack of presence,
Reminding me of those,
Who inspired me essence.

Even if you think,
Time will pass me by,
Not everything is pink,
I'll never say good-bye.

You are still here,
That's all that matters,
You will never leave, dear,
Says the echo time shatters.

But nothing lasts forever,
Doesn't matter if it breaks your heart,
It's neither dumb nor clever,
It just rips your soul apart.

All of what is left is in your mind,
And you start to wonder if it was real,
You start to forget what time will not remind,
You feel a cold chill.

Lost in the cold December fog,
Remembering what has been lost,
Even the smell of coffee in a mug,
Has a terrible cost.

These are my last words
I crumple the paper and go away
It doesn't matter. I know it hurts
I have to go to a better place

You are not here by my side,
It's been long since you left,
I as well have died,
What a horrible act of theft.

And I keep on walking,
I become part of the forgotten,
Not ever stopping,
The best gift I've ever gotten.
