I was asked "would you ever move?" In a heartbeat, my reply followed,
"I would leave this all behind"
I spoke in a soft whisper,
Scared the wind would carry
My words to him,
"I would leave this all behind,
If it meant I could start fresh,
Somewhere with no memories of him,
I would leave family and friends,
If it meant I could be somewhere,
Where his hands hadn't kissed my skin,
I would move to somewhere new,
Somewhere he had never been,
Somewhere no one knew his name,
Or mine,
I would move into the middle of nowhere,
Just to get away from the memories of him that haunt me"
