Fall Forgetfulness

It’s been so long

Since I’ve seen your face

That I’m starting to forget

The color of your eyes

And the way you smile

 

But I’ll always remember

The way you cared

 

The leaves fall

And they drift apart

 

With time

They are whisked away onto different paths

 

So this is goodbye

I don’t want to believe it

But the time has come

 

This is goodbye

I don’t want to believe you

But deep down

I always knew 

Someday

I would lose you

 

This is goodbye

I don't want to believe

That I’m losing you today

But time was whisked away

Like the leaves on the trees

Leaving me

Alone.

    Our story always ends the same

    No matter how many pages I turn

     

    In the end

    I’m the friend in need

    And you’re the main character, always having to help me

     

    I try to rip the pages out
