Tuesday, November 8

it's not that i hate you, i just forget

I know I won't always remember,
But please don't let me forget
Every day we spend apart,
Softly easing tendered hearts
Burning hate like cigarettes.

And don't forget my smile,
As you sit and blanky stare
Because I can't forget the way,
Your smile seemed to say
And promise you'd be there.

Remember the time we made the dolls?
Yea, unfortunately neither do I
Pipe cleaners and looseleaf sheets,
Mix in with nostalgic heartbeats
Why don't you ever try?

I know I won't always remember,
But I don't want to wait and see
My memories; slowly fading,
Thoughts; dissintegrating
Broken hearts left out to bleed.
