Forget

What does it take to make me forget??
To make me give up on the only thing I ever wanted
To systematically shut off my feelings
To act as if , they weren't even there

What does it take to let me forgive??
To let me look past all that you have done
It's the most difficult thing I have ever had to do
Its so hard that I lay awake at night for hours thinking about it

Thinking about how and why--I can forgive
Someone that seems to hurt me, any chance you can
You say you don't mean it, and that you'll change
But you never do, you just keep hurting me

You hurt me like a knife piercing my heart
The only difference is that with a stabbing the pain will end
But this lasts forever, as long as the mind remembers
It constantly eats at me, tormenting my soul

When I drift off I'm thinking of you
When I dream, I dream only of you
When I get up, I'm thinking of you
But the problem is, I should be forgetting you….
