i'll dye a thousand roses black
just to try and remember the joy
when you gave a dozen to me for any occasion,
if there needed to be one at all.
as i write these words onto paper,
i think about how much i still love you
and how much i wish you still were here.
i'm sorry we didn't last forever like we wanted to,
but please don't ever forget about me.

i couldn't bring myself to look you in the eye
that last night we spent together.
i couldn't bring myself to touch your flesh
knowing that tomorrow, you'd disappear.
you kissed me between the eyes,
as if you were drunk again
groping my body
as if i were your property.
never again, will i be
i want to say i hate you for hurting me
but we both know that's not true
when will you finally remember?
