I smash open my skull and pry apart my frontal lobe , so I could forget how your smile made me felt. I pull my teeth out with a pair of rusty pliers, to make me forget the taste your tongue left me. I tear my fingernails off and replace them with sharpened glass between the ripped flesh, to forget the tender sweet touch from your hands. I gorge my eyes out, so I can forget how you used to look as you slept. I stab my ear canals with scissors, to forget the sound of you laughing. I plug my nose up with mothballs, so I forget how your clothes smelt when I wore them. I peel off my skin piece by piece to forget how soft your skin was. I can’t forget.

An old poem I wrote awhile back. Would of done the one I wrote today but it's extremely cheesy (and it's just to help me with remembering important figures in Chemistry).
