Forget-Me-Not
I could not write your wrongs.
I cannot list your faults.
I only know that you are gone.
You never saw the future I pictured, I built.
Inside my mind a house exists,
A garden of roses, climbing ivy,
Hopeful sunflowers catch the sun.
There are dreams you can try to resist,
But in the end the only story that interests me is a true romance.
A true love story. A story about love.
You will never know of my heart
And the crater you left as you crashed through my soul.
I could never truly say what I think you are,
Because words could not exist to help you love me.
I have no way to try; so I must let you go.
Your love is his and memories are all the reminders I have of you now.
Fantasies that could never be;
My fictional bliss.
My never was.
My never will be.
My promise to forget is written down.
It will stand there until the end of time.
Written in ink, if I ever think,
Just one line…
I loved you,
Is all that it said.
Pictures in paintings, no longer remaining,
I am removing this vision from my head…
