Remember You.

Poetry about trying to forget someone

Remember You.

When you’d look at someone or a picture of them

You’d be reminded of your lost ones

That’s how it was for me with you

When I see or touch things

I am instantly reminded of you

And how I wish it didn’t

Because when I remember you

It brings me so much pain

And the unbearable silence from you

That has grown so big over the years

I am left wondering what went wrong

And how did everything become this way

Why can’t we be together now?

I am still left with unanswered questions

And always will be

Why can’t I forget you?

I shouldn’t remember you.

But I always do.
