I want to stop this thinking
Move quickly right along,
And put you far behind me
Cause what we did was wrong.
But how can I stop writing
When all my head is full of you?
When all of my surroundings
Are all about you too.
When the couch that I am sitting on
Is the place where once you slept.
And the floors that I walk upon
Are places you once stepped.
And my European photos
Are mainly all of you.
And the meals that I am cooking
Are ones I cooked for you.
The computer I am working on
You always commandeered,
Downloading all your favorite songs,
Tongue foreign to my ear.
I listen to my cds
But they make me want to cry,
Cause even though they’re happy
They remind me of your lie.
Go out dancing with my friends
But it makes me feel so sad,
Cause I danced with you so many times,
We spun and pranced like mad.
I want to get a video
But the movie choice is few,
Cause the only ones I want to see
Are ones I saw with you.
The words to our song ‘Beautiful’
Still echo in my head,
Deleted from my PC now
But never really dead.
Travel to the sea and find
The memories are there more,
We spent our longest days right here
Just sitting by the shore.
And driving from the movies
Was the time that we held hands.
I do that drive now every week,
I should make other plans.
The shops are even haunted now
Cause I was there with you,
Caressing in the back room
And kissing you there too.
The pub, the restaurant, the church
Are all avoided now,
Cause breaking down is stupid,
I must stay strong somehow.
It’s the times that we argued
I so easily forget,
And the terrible way you treated me
I forget made me upset.
I barely even knew you
Yet you infiltrate my life.
Our time together was so short
Yet you cause me so much strife.
There’s no place here that I can go
To escape from me and you.
The memories here will never leave
I feel that that is true.
I fear that going back home,
Travelling back to other lands,
Is the only way to get release
From the grip of your strong hands
Just leave me right alone please
And let my life go on,
I want to be so happy
All memories of you gone.

This is a really awesome poem K.
It holds no triteness...every line is poignant
and every verse moving.
A wonderful job that i wish you didn't have to
write....if you get my drift :(
