Engaged

How can I be so forgetful?
I can remember your eyes
And your beautiful smile.
I can remember your soft hands
And your perfect body.
I can remember your long hair
And your soft skin.
I can remember the feel of your lips
And your comforting words.
But even though I can't forget you
I seem to forget getting engaged
Engaged to a life of pain
How can I be so forgetful?
