Forgotten You have become a distant memory I forgot how much I loved you how much I needed you as I feel the lump in my throat I have forgotten you As I think of how I felt when we were together as I remember what life was like with you how I felt when you touched me as my eyes well up with tears I have forgotten you As I sit here trying to remember how we slept together so peacefully how we made love so sweet how you held me in your arms and I forgot there was a world other than us when we were together as the tears burn my face I have forgotten you As I ponder of what was as I think of what might have been as I remember your loving embrace and how it could have been as I recover and hold back my sorrow I have forgotten you When you call with an explanation when you think it can be repaired When you say you want to be us again and you did it because you were scared I wanted to respond I only have memories of pain and hurt and sorrow and the betrayal of what you did how you hurt me and crumbled my world how life seemed to stop and pain took over my being but all I can say is you have to forget the past and I have forgotten As I tell you it is irreparable and deny my feelings again and tell you it is too much, too soon, too little, too late and I can't forgive your sin as I hold back my tears and regain the strength to tell you no I can only think of memories that will only live in the past and the past is not the present and I have forgotten As I heard the tears in your voice as you hung up the phone I regained my strength because of the decision I made I sat and remembered what once was conflicted, sad and more powerful than I thought I could ever be how I was so proud for being so strong because I told you to forget me and not to live in the past because you broke my heart, betrayed my trust and thought of my feelings last I can't help but remember you but that is all in the past and I have a future unseen, unchartered, unwritten and I have forgotten you. |
