Don't think I forgot about you... Your soft brown eyes, your wavy hair
As if it'd even be possible at this point
Because it's not. With all that we went through, erasing history would be impossible
And impossible too is the idea of erasing you
From the memories in my mind, in which you are etched almost permenantly
You permeated everything... Just about everything that I had
My life, my mind, my body, my soul
And now erasing you is nowhere near feasible, to say the least
At least what we had was real.
It was not just a flicker of light--here and then gone,
Gone and then back, but my back shows the marks of our love continually
And so I continually look back at what was, thirsting for what could have been
Been there, done that. No more going back, but moving forward
And onward with someone new. But that doesn't mean that I am rid of you
And should it?
You were my first. For so long you were my all. You were my everything
And nothing else mattered as long as we were...
And now I've moved on, but I still wonder if I really have
Have my heart and mind abandoned you for another?
And while my body has, I still wonder have the others?
Is it even possible for a heart to detach? And although I know it isn't fair, my soul has been latched
And unlatching has proven difficult, which is why I look back
Back at the impossibility of ever forgetting you... Your soft brown eyes, your wavy hair
Your timid touch, your lingering stare, your embracing lips, your strength with words, your inquisitive care, your unintentional verbs
Just please don't ever think that I forgot. Because I can't.
