Do not think of me; go on your solitary way, search empty valleys or deserted mountain tops. Or trek towards the seashore. See, the horizons beckon, ever-shifting, changing, always fluctuating, mutable. You sucked my soul away: I am an empty husk, worthless, ineffectual, useless. Move on towards the sun shining in the high skies but be careful lest you yourself are burnt away to worthless cinders. So do not think of me. Move on, be bright the future is now yours, I'm merely just a past. Forget me; I'm inexistent for that is my lifeline. Maybe I'll find a loving soul who loves me true, but only if you do not think of me.
