I try to forget

by Ashley Van Eperen   Apr 29, 2006


I spent all day,
Trying to forget,
The pain i feel inside,
Ever since we met.

And I try to forget your laughter
The sound of your voice
But when all is silent,
Its like i dont have a choice.

And i try to forget your kisses,
The ones that felt so sweet
But even when i'm sleeping,
I feel them in my dreams

And I try to forget your touch,
As you held me in your arms
But the safety that i felt inside,
Is just a memory of your charm

And I try to forget the promises
The ones i thought were true,
But i should have known that they were lies
When you said "I'll be here for you."

I try to forget the way I cried
When I knew things had changed
But even when you couldn't tell me
I knew you weren't the same

I try to hide my secrets,
But you know they are there
Bleeding from inside my soul...
And suddenly....
I'm scared.

    This was really sad. Good though. The way you went through each stanza with what you were trying to forget was really good. Keep it up! 5/5
