Remember Me?

lilgoofy Poems

Remember me? The one who idled by, patient Waiting for you, as I grew ancient Still, I held no anger or despair As I know the treatment was good judgment and fair I supposed I never knew I would get to that point Where I scared you off, scattered Leaving you bruised, beaten and battered Never physically But the mind's skin is more delicate than we know And sad for us, not something we can show Do you remember me, though? I still feel the same, despite it all My longing for you has never dwindled Your absence caused me to feel swindled My adoration knew no bounds Especially when you were nowhere to be found Please say you remember me Truly as I am, not as the Monster within, we all have a monster so I'm sorry you had to see mine And I promised I'd keep her chained up, taut line Forget me now, as you surely have I don't even have to ask I know where your mind is Long gone, detached from me Though we once shared sleep every night I see that you had to take flight To protect yourself from your biggest fear The love I had to give you, it got too near And scared you away, So I ask only that While you may forget me And the smile on my face as we kissed Please remember the love I had for you It never left, it never will It will remember you as surely as you will forget me.
