Dreams

I want to forget your memory
Forget our past
But every morning I wake with a gasp
They consume everytime I doze into slumber
These dreams I dont understand why we are over
You were a king in my eyes
my everything not knowing it was all a disguise
you fled one night, leaving nothing but tears in my eyes
Showing thr true colors that I had continued to deny
gasping for air confused as to why I find myself in so deep
you were part of me and I cant escape my dreams
are u ok? do you think of me?
was I really the nothing that I now seem?
Was I really something like u told me or was it all lies, a convience you found in me? 
gasping for air every morning now i battle for these dreams to leave me
comsuming, demanding, controlling
I almost rather not sleep.
Trying to erase you but you can't escape me
cold and shaking as I lie here awake
Tears flowing the saltiness burning my face
empty inside I suppose thats where u hide
zzzzz... O goodness let me sleep let me have unrelated dreams
Let you exit let you be gone let me heart body soul and mind be done
empty my head so as I lay in this bed to close my eyes wont be something I dread...
I want to forget your memory
Forget our past, not wake with said dreadful gasp
you didnt care all lies you told me
o goodness please just leave me. leave you stupid memories. They weren't as good as I think...
STOP Alyssa take control , stop letting him comsume me
forgetting you and the what seems distant past
starting fresh on a new path
I will forget ur memory
I will forget our past 
hopefully one day it'll all be a laugh
