Erasing Memories
I thought my mind could bury you deep
And my heart would never know
But like a cancer you’re still there
Embedded, continuing to grow
I will forget the times we shared
The passion that was you
Block out the way you held me close
And the fire that would imbue
I will erase the memories
Remove what traces left
Eradicate all remaining thoughts
And put my love to rest
If I practice hard enough
I can pretend it wasn’t real
A dream that lasted way too long
A dream that I still feel
