Just another forgotten memory

Just another forgotten memory

A Poem by Sam

I kept reaching out, tears steaming
Tugging at your worn-out sweater
Desperate for the past
Terrified of the future
Lost and hurting
My heart stopped as we let go
And as I told of my love for you

Am I just a memory?
Am I no one?
Am I so lost that I`m speaking nonsense?
Tell me, please, have you forgotten me?

 

Before, you made all pain decease

Nothing else mattered as long as you held me

My knight in shining armour

My creature of the night

My saviour, so brave and true

And now, confusion consumes my mind

Anger squeezes my heart and pain diminishes my soul

 

Am I just a memory?

Am I no one?

Am I so lost that Im speaking nonsense?
Tell me, please, have you forgotten me?

 

We act like the windows haven`t shattered

Putting on a fierce mask for the bystanders

Wanting a fire that burns so deeply

But knowing it can`t be

At least for now, but... waiting...

That`s something that turns me cold

Because who knows when the fire will feel warm again

 

Am I just a memory?
Am I no one?
Am I so lost that Im speaking nonsense?

Tell me, please, have you forgotten me?

 

In time, Ill reach out, holding you

But for now, your face haunts me

Taunting and hurting me

Constantly reminding me of my loss

I want to forgety this want, this temptation and this need

So much more is happening

So much more burns in my mind

Spinning, twisting, turning

I cant fight any of it

Because Ive relied on you for so long

And now, my emptions havent changed

But since I saw into you

Ive changed because of you

And I know in time, Ill hold you again

Because no one else will have me

For I will always love you.
