Poem
As I purge my mind of all the memories bits and pieces that still infuriate me I remember being on the phone with her in our last conversation and in the background I could hear what her new boy friend was saying Threatening to leave and reminding her about the things I?d done Then you claimed I had not changed You said I was still very angry I said under the circumstances how would you feel If the only love you knew was being decided upon a moments notice No more chasing No more memories No more wishing you?d come back No more you, no more me Last page, End of story, close the book and don?t look back Then suddenly another memory a psychic gave your mom advice She said you were going to have to choose between two lovers But that moment in time had no rhyme and we just laughed it off But as I reminded her of that time I could hear fear through a fateful sigh then suddenly everything in my mind began to flicker Like a candle blowing in the wind My mind my soul prepared to let go Like an addiction that feeds off the regret No more chasing No more memories No more wishing you?d come back No more you, no more me Last page, End of story, close the book and don?t look back Another reel of my memory plays Like sitting in a dark room with a tv on and remote in hand Skipping through the channels And watching each clip She said I have to call you back but I already knew what the answer would be It was in her voice when that moment became a reality. She buckled under pressure and I was out of the picture No more chasing No more memories No more wishing you?d come back No more you, no more me Last page, End of story, close the book and don?t look back Our break up was resentful Unfortunately it was all based on a lie And for six years she hated me However she never really knew the truth why And as one last image begins to float away like a balloon I see the engagement ring and the party I see what could have been, should?ve been but is not going to happen I see you on face book with two kids and an illegitimate husband No more chasing No more memories No more wishing you?d come back No more you, no more me Last page, End of story, close the book and don?t look back
