Moving On

I tell my self your gone
I tell myself I don't miss you at all
I cant keep lying to myself
I know that Ive been wrong

I see you dancing in the kitchen
I hear you laughing in the halls
I remember you ditching school
I miss your midnight phone calls

I smile at the pictures
I laugh at the good times
I see your face everywhere I turn
In mirrors, ponds, and fixtures

I hear your voice still in my head
I caress your short life
I don't know what happened to you
I don't know why you left me for a knife

I remember what you taught me
I sure as hell wont forget it
I told you how deep I got in
I remember you jumped in to help me swim

Raindrops in the street
Footsteps in the halls
Hands clapping to the beat
People remembering their falls

We remember what we've done
We learn from the mistakes we've made
And somehow we move on

I choose not to forget
I wont forget the day we met
I don't regret a day we had
And I refuse to be so sad again
