You Will Remember This

I’ll never tell you how I feel anymore
Never, never will you see my breaking heart (the one you decease!)
And I know you’ll never stop
Enthusing the negativity

You changed
We process
And yes, I amend and change too
In the usual ways
But you began the violation.

Do you wish to hear the same old story?
Old questions?
Young thrills and midnight charms
The truth that was
And those old hopes
That old pride of being us.


Do you wish to remind yourself?
The lights and music familiar;
Cocktail skirt and your hand in mine.
The way they looked
And wished evil
While we shared our secret smiles
And laughed real hard till we cried.
And you kissed me all the way to your home
Even before the party got on.

You can play blame as much as you would like now
But you will remember this.
You will remember my love.
-effortless and unadulterated
All that I gave;
All that you possessed.

Yes, you can hold my hand if you want to
But you will never have my words again.
Never my thoughts again;
You had my soul oh so easy
And I hope you’ll find yours
Without me
I hope you’ll be complete tonight
Without me fitting. (Closer!)

I get wicked
Thinking of how much
You will remember this.


How will you forget our world?

And I will not keep the promises.
And I promise I will forget.
