I lay awake
unable to sleep
as memories of what we once were
run rampant through my restless mind,
No matter how much I try to escape
I can't
the memories continue to torment me.
I don't want to remember you
don't want to remember us
I want to forget the laughs we shared
the smiles from across the room
I want to forget the way you held me close
the way you touched me so gently, so passionatley
Please, my love
Leave me be
Let me gorget you
because I don't want the memories.
Those memories that cause me so much pain.
