Been so long
No words, no in person.
Just memory of what once was.
Contemplation turns towards him
Don’t want flashbacks
Yet he is held in my thoughts
People say
The past should stay the past
Try not to think about the moments
But
How can I just erase?
Erase from mind?
Erase from heart?
Stuck there, no way of getting him out
He doesn’t want to be,
I don’t want him to be
That’s just how things turned out.
