I Don'T Remember Or Crave

I remember when, we would yakkety-yak, so many hours on the phone. Feeling so almighty, not wanting to end our conversations. My every brain-work, was always you. Your name, kept going threw my mind. Now, we never talk. We email each other like strangers. Then, not everyday. Our lives have changed so much. To the point, were our friendship isn't there. My heart doesn't skip a beat anymore. Instead, it seems to beat, very slow. Causing physical pain, as I hold my chest. Now! I don't like hearing your name or seeing it spelled. Remembering when, we would crave to see each other. Hold each other, so much. Not wanting to be apart. Always laughing and smiling. Eating has one. Remembering, the stare we had. We couldn't keep our eyes off our flesh. Our nights, seemed lonely without our touch. Now! We don't crave, or see each other. We never laugh or smile. We never eat together. Now our hands don't touch. The sad part is, I could care less. Care less on wanting it back. I don't miss it or need it. For it's you, I can thank. You gave me the strength, to leave you. You gave me the strength, to forget about you. You gave me the strength, to erase our memories. All , because you gave up. Gave up on, our touch. Gave up on, our smiles. Gave up on, our laughter. Gave up on me. Me! Your wife!
