Memories

Laid out in front of me

Playing like a movie screen

You left me

When you promised you would not

Was I never good enough

I was never ready

When you were too willing

I may have moved on

Yet, my heart still skips

I slap myself

Shake my head

Pull out my hair

Wonder why?!

Just why are you still there

Why are they still playing

Why is your name still

In my head

The mention of you

Has me scared

The mention of you

Has me tortured in my own body and soul

How could you

How can you still be there

As if you are some magnet to my heart

I can pull and push

But you are always back again

He is so much better than you

He makes me happy

I am happy with him

Going slower than we did

I am still not ready

Yet I still think of you

I want to forget you

I want to forget what we had

So I can move on

You are always there

Please go away

Let me forget

Let me be free of your name

Before I suffer more

Then I already have

Leave me be

Set me free

My heart cannot take you

Anymore

It is breaking

Stay out of my dreams

Stay out of my mind

Get out of my heart!

So I can move on with him

Set me free Leave me be

So I can be

With Him
