For you I would forget,
Like I did so long ago,
I’d cast my love of poems away,
The one thing that I own.

For you I would give up,
This gateway to the soul,
If it means that I’d forget,
Emotion’s heavy toll.

I’d let it all just melt away,
Like I did the first time through,
I’d do anything to replace your name,
With the face of someone new.
