Forget
I've tried endlessly to forget your face
yet when I close my eyes
everything is clear and defined.
I try to forget you then I smell your cologne
I've even smelled it when I was all alone.
I try to forget you but it is an impossible task,
you have become a part of me that will always last.
I try to ignore your voice of reason forget the things you've said,
the more i fight it the louder it gets in my head.
I cannot forget you, nor do I want to,
I didn't say goodbye for I knew it wouldn't be true.
You are the destiny I fight, the fate I ignore.
I am tired of raging waters,
yet more afraid of the shore.
