I Will Forget

I Will Forget

You left me like a tear drop that never returns.
Like when bird fledgelings leave their nests.
You left when I thought you were mine.
You left me like a snowflake melting 

on the sidewalk

I gave you my heart for safe keeping.
All you did was to shatter it like glass
Than you gave it back to me bleeding 

my love away

Perhaps I broke some kind of law by
loving you. I am strong and will forget

Yet, why do I keep hearing your words 

of love?

I never expected you to hurt me this way.
You left me but you’ll see, I will forget you.

I close my eyes and still see you. 

Damn you!

Yet, my bleeding heart 

still yearns and waits for you.
