The Lingering Thoughts

Trying no to think of you,
Trying not to be reminded of us,
When we were in love,
When we were happy.
Those small but sweet memories,
They remind me of my broken heart.
The lingering thoughts,
That I can't let go of,
Because they make me cry,
They make me laugh,
Because they were special,
And you were special to me...
You were my first love,
And the first to break my heart.
The first one always hurts the most;
And those lingering thoughts,
Playing inside my head,
Like a broken record,
Continues to leave scars.
You continue to come back,
And you remain in my mind;
As a lingering memory,
That will never go away...
