Maybe I just
Don’t want to
Remember
The light in your
Eyes
The quirk of your
Smile
The soft, rolling
Lilt
Of your voice
Maybe it’s better
This way
To forget
Let it fade
Like ink on paper
Worn with time
Illegible
And decayed
Maybe I’ll let myself
Float on away
Gentle and drifting
Far from those
Thoughts
Those old aging
Dreams
Withered and worn
At the edges
Maybe someday
I will find
Somewhat strangely
That all of those
Feelings
That once were so
Vibrant
Have lost all their
Color, their light
Once so shining
While all that is
Left
Of this once so true
Love
Are the dust covered
Maybes, now
Locked in a box
Tucked away in the
Darkest of corners
Deep down in my
Heart
