Forgotten
12.29.03

How do I forgive you again?
My love, let me trace the past
I’ve waited for your commitment
But it never lasts

You’re failing, my dear
Falling towards a bitter winter time
I worried long, I worried hard
Didn’t I warn you about this?

I’m leaving now, love
Drifting towards a long fabled peace
Don’t try to find me
Only havoc shall that road wreak

Suffering, so alone you may be
What does it mean to me?
I harden my heart-
I’m ice already
Knives thrown by those like you, my dear
They teach us not to bleed after we’ve shed that millionth tear

Oh, how I long to leave you now, love
Still- it’s never that simple
What a horrible web you weave
Only havoc does it wreak

Let me feel your tears on my cheek
Let me be held in your arms
I swore I didn’t know the song-
But still I sang right along

Lies- that is all I am
Yet this can be changed
I’ll harden still, pick up the pieces of this broken life
Move on- forget who I have been

My love, I’ve forgotten who I am...

<--- fall into my patterened tears... [return]
<---<--- catch me as i fall? [AA]
