(Authors Note: Hey wattpad!!! Sorry I have been gone so long. I got tied up in homework and such.

Anyways I was listening through songs on my playlist to find inspiritation for a poem, and I found one!

I really like this song, and it sort of reminded me about stuff I have forgotten that really mattered.

So I wrote a poem on it, and here it is! Enjoy and don't forget to VOTE, COMMENT, and listen to the music!!! :3)

Have you ever forgotten?

Have you ever forgotten the most important events in your life?

And the worse?

I have.

I was so afraid back then.

I still am today.

I am afraid I will never forget those nights I suffered crying.

But I have.

I didnt just forget the worst times, but also the best.

The times I made new friends.

The times I spent laughing all day.

When I smiled.

When I frowned.

I miss all that.

And its my fault I forgot.

Yes, I forgot on purpose.

I forgot, because I was afraid.

I was too afraid to face my past.

To just stare it down.

But I couldnt.

I couldnt face my own mistakes.

I couldnt face them head on, and forgive.

I couldnt forgive myself.

There are times when I cant even forgive myself today.

Its because of the way I acted back then.

I blamed it on everyone else then.

And now, now I blame it all on myself.

Because I forgot.

All those precious memories were erased.

Because of one mistake.

I couldnt forgive.

I couldnt forget.

But I did.

I just forgot all my precious memories while I was erasing the bad ones.

And now I store it in the back of my head.

I wish it would just leak out.

I regret what I've done, and probably what I will do.

But I stand here as a new person.

Now I just have one more question.

Have you forgiven?

Have you forgiven your enemies?

And most of all have you forgiven the most important one of all?

Have you foriven yourself?
