Part 13:Help To Forget

Today you said some things to me,
You no longer could keep inside.

Your cracks shown through,
Black and blue.
Your demons came alive.

I felt saddened,
That these broken thoughts,
So secretly you did hold.

But how could I criticise you,
When I had held onto mine to?

Maybe we were both oblivious,
To our broken sides.

The truth is,
You make me forget,
And I remember how to smile.

So naturally,
To those broken words,
I didn't know how to reply.

What kind of friend was I ,
Not to have realised?

You said you wanted to run away,
But my selfish heart,
Wants you to stay.

I need you.
You keep me sane.
You make me forget my broken lies.

So a desperate heart said what it said,
Desperate to make you stay.

And I know words are just words,
And pain doesn't just float away.

But I hope I learn to make you forget,
Just a little,
Each day.

I swear I will be there for,
When your barely-beating heart.
Is broken in two.

And maybe one day,
Forgetting will be easier for you to.
