I wish that you would forget all about me. I told you truth but I couldn't hear the truth you wanted to tell.
I loved you unconditionally. At least I thought that I did. I promised you the best of me but as it seems the best of me was hardly worth a thing.
Your hair was dark like ink and just as fluid.
Your lips were pink, freshly bitten. You were always nervous.
Your eyes were dark brown, mysterious but comforting.
I knew your name, not your name, but your name.
I saw the beauty you hid from others and I thought I understood.
You told me dreams and sold me faith but the bargain was less than what I understood to be.
What is it that I meant to you? What should you mean to me?
Your soliloquies at the term were beautiful but now in retrospect, senseless.
You...
You, asked of me faith. I delivered.
You, asked of me trust. I never doubted.
You, asked of me time. Mine was lost to you.
You, said you craved my affections. You, said you loved me more than life. You, threatened to end your own and assured me I would never have any worry because you would be my wife. You told me I was beautiful. You, made me believe. You, showed me to forget about a love that never happened move past the frizzy and straighten out. You, tore me from my sadness and cradled me in hope. You, bleed in my veins so my stone heart would pump once more. You, promised me life.
You...
I never asked for anything.
I never sought you out.
I never wanted a thing.
You...
You said you loved me.
You told the lies.
You slept with him.
You...
I have to forget about
You...
Still sing to me like a siren crashing my senses.
You...
Tore my trust. A bond I thought stronger than steel like wet sheet paper.
You...
I loved
You...
Say you still
You...
Claim you still
You...
Say that you
You...
Please forget me.
You...
Hurt me.
You...
I wish that
You...
Please forget me.
