{Forgotten}
You are a dream that I wanted to fade in the light of the dawn,
Yet everynight you haunted my nights.
The ache in my chest never faded no matter how long you stayed gone.
And as you invaded my mind you stayed a fleshy reminder of all my oversights.
Sweet dreams never wished to one as haunted as I am.
Your phantom touches and whispered words never wished more real.
Your initials sewn into my heart like a twisted monogram,
Never left alone long enough to scar and heal.
I wish to banish you from my mind but I fear I'll never see you again.
Your eyes, your face, your sweet caresses all erased without hope of being retrieved.
You'll become a memory of the time of 'remember when',
A figment of my imagination, a restless spirit, a creature of forgotten vows,
Gone from me, a long passed valentine.
As I lay in my bed night after night my mind wanders and my eyes begin to fall into a drowse,
I will make myself forget that you were ever really mine.
