Forget I Said That

Oh to forget. To loose the stone where it is set. To step into whiteness, fill the space with lightness. I would let it trickle from my fingertips. Scribble the memory of how i shaped my lips. To this secret paper i Impart, how i used my words to crush your heart How one can get carried away in arguments of right and wrong, till ones wronged the right one in her justice song. Oh to forget your means true end; it is done by everyone on that depend. I will write to you. please forgive me all. Let bitterness from your memory fall. oh to forget to forget to forget Let every person i hurt forget. Then give me a potion of tales tall, so that from my memory it may also fall.
