When I Go I Will Forget Everything About You

A clean break was what I was hoping for;
I couldn't hold onto these feelings anymore.
Moving would be hard, but I knew it was right,
I could keep losing this useless fight.

So I pack my treasures carefully away,
The memories flood back to each special day:
Christmas, Valentine's, and each day in between -
Each sharing the secrets no one has seen.

I smile with the laughs as I pack the things -
I had forgotten how much happiness you bring.
Each "I love you" holds onto something we had -
But then it was time to relive the bad.

You broke my heart when you said we were done,
We were once two, now I'm just one.
You left me for her, how I almost forgot!
You said you'd always love me but I think not.

But before I left, I did something I'll never regret;
I gave you something, just so you'd never forget.
I kissed you again, for the very last time -
It felt so good that for one second, you were mine.

With resolve in my eyes and a smile on my face,
I was able to let go of this place.
I laughed as I knew exactly what to do:
