I keep forgetting to remember the things I've reminded myself to forget. Pump my head full of helium and fill my body up with lead. I got yelled at by the driver of a car that almost hit me today. I said, "You'd be doing me a favor!" as I walked away. I keep finishing at the start and beginning with the end. Earlier tonight, I made an emo playlist for my favorite ****** friend. If only we could pool our feelings together and then . . . **** I forget. All bills have been paid, and all the letters have been sent. Somehow, we're still falling deeper into debt. I poured my heart out to an apathetic page and yet, we're only getting paid for what we'd rather forget. I keep making sour faces at the sweetest scenes I see. I've been waking up early just to get there late. I'm having trouble doubting things I've never believed. I keep getting angry at people I long ago forgave. Will they ever forgive me? Have they already? I forget.
