The love that I lost (NAR)

The love that I lost has been gone for a while
But the hope I my heart lingered on
The possibility of her returning was alive in my soul
That one-day we’d be together again

Now I feel the hope leaving me
I can feel it coming out of my chest
And floating away into nothingness
And I know it’s useless to try and stop it
Like grasping at shadows
There’s simply nothing to hold on too

With every passing day
With every turn of the page
Her memories of me, I’m sure
Grows dimmer and more faded

She has already stop talking about me
Soon she’ll even forget all about me
And the times we’ve had would have just been added
To her long list of life experiences

She’ll forget about me
And maybe I’ll forget about her too in time
But right now the love that she professed
Still stings deep in my heart.
