True Love's Lost

How you come back

From the memory, I thought I forgotten.

The memory I long to forget. 

Clear as the day 

I saw your face on my mind.

I miss you now

Like I missed you then.

And so I am once again,

In this spiraling circus den.

Showing me all the pain and happiness, 

I have once then

Promising to myself, to never go back again.

Each reminisce, sometimes the same 

But it all comes down in the end.

Tears will fall, lamenting the choice

If not chosen 

Will still fall into desperate void.

After this re-battle.

I will regain myself with the realization

That what has long gone 

Is just a memory 

That no matter how long I try to forget

Will only haunt me again and again

To show me a memory

Of you and me that has long forgotten.

I'm not quite sure if the grammatical errors are on purpose or not. I feel the melancholy, though!

we experience true love more than once. I guess pain is a part of it;
we grow.. we become strong... we move on.

a good piece!
