Remember To Forget

Trying to remember to forget him, but really remembering all the while.

Somewhere,
In the midst of it all

I...
Just
Forgot
To miss you

Wasn’t as if I intended to
But…
In the wake of absent nights
With tears spent for company
I…
Somehow
Found strength
In being alone

&
...I just
Simply forgot
To continue missing you

After I...
...Changed my sheets,
Burned your letters
Picked up my heart
Revived it through:
Fervent prayers &
Wishful thinking

Post-it-notes
Posted
Upon refrigerator door

Agenda for today:
“Remember to forget
…Oh, & get milk too”
You always forgot that

Forgot how to love me
Forgot to care
Forgot to try
As I tried
To remember
How, not to cry

But I
Remembered to...

Forget, late night phone calls
Holding hands
While strolling down memory lane
Rainy nights, & kisses at my door
Forget that,
We…
Laid within sheets
Whispered promises
Late into the evening

Forget that,
I ever loved you

& Maybe
Possibly
...Everything’s gon be ok

& within the midst of it all
Somehow...
I forgot how
To miss you too

Just...

Remember to forget

...Don't worry
I haven't forgotten yet
