Fall Forgetfulness/That Was It (Part Three)

It’s been so long

Since I’ve seen your face

That I’m starting to forget

The color of your eyes

And the way you smile

 

But I’ll always remember

The way you cared

 

The leaves fall

And they drift away

 

With time

They are whisked away onto different paths

 

So, this is goodbye

I don’t want to believe it

But the time has come 

To face the pain I’ve been denying

 

This is goodbye

I don’t want to believe you

But deep down

I always knew

Someday

I would lose you

 

This is goodbye

I don't want to believe

That I’m losing you today

But time was whisked away

Like the leaves on the trees

Leaving me

Alone.

  • Accepting the Truth

    The hardest part

    Wasn’t

    Noticing the signs

    Hoping they won’t notice the way they hurt you

    Knowing they don’t care

    Leaving first

    Telling yourself to move on

    To remember

    Is to live in the past

    Unable to forget

    The wonder and happiness

    That emerged from the darkness

     

    To remember

    Is insanity

    To do the same thing repeatedly

  • Someday I'll Be Okay

    I can’t pretend anymore

    I’m not okay,

    I’ve never been okay

    And I don’t think I’ll ever be okay

     

    But every day I’m trying

    Every day I’m learning to love the flaws he hated

    Every day I’m writing
