Just Forget Me

Just forget me,
and walk away,
It wasn't meant to be,
So why try to stay.

Don't look at me,
When you walk by,
You don't want to see,
If I start to cry.

If you like her,
Then leave me alone,
Yet, here you were,
Talking on my phone.

What is it you miss,
Do you remember when,
I can't take this,
Never see me again.

When you do go,
Just take my heart,
Do I need it, no,
You tore it apart.

You go your way,
And I'll go mine,
Don't worry today,
Because I'll be fine.

Kelly These words tug at the heartstrings and make the reader feel your pain and sorrow. You spoke from your heart and soul and it shows. Nice job

You are very good at creative word plays and original ideas. Verse five is positively brilliant! Also an excellent job piecing a plot conforming to such an intricate rhyme scheme, and short lines to boot. This fits the generic form of rhyme but I think it is better placed under the form of "quatrain," which is when there are four lines, the second rhyming with the fourth, or optionally and additionally the first with the third.

sad. . . love found should not be taken for granted, that was not love but deception of the heart, a gal like you is hard to find, if only you would be mine. . . see you got me inspired. .. . . lols
