I'll Forget You

by Heart Locket   Mar 20, 2006


How could this happen,
With a love so strong,
You've left me in the cold,
You're doing this all wrong

In secret we met,
My heart skipped a beat,
How could I forget,
Your smile so sweet

All I ever did was love you,
And now my trust is broken,
A tear falls from my eye,
My name on your lips, no longer spoken

You left upon my cheek,
A cold and dark kiss,
As I stare into the night sky,
I never bargained for this

As I think to myself,
In the dark silence I grieve,
As the tears come like rain,
My love you did deceive

As I stand before you,
Waiting for an excuse,
My world falls to pieces,
You held my heart so loose

Tell me that your lying,
That everything will be okay,
Hold my hand tightly,
And wipe these tears away

But all I get is a cold stare,
No hugs, no kisses,
Just an empty glare

Please hear me,
This is true, I know,
Your heart isn't mine, can't you see?
Is all you say as you start to leave

When you said I love you,
It was all just a game,
It wasn't sincere, it wasn't true,
Your lies hurt, my heart feels shame

To an empty life,
Every morning I wake,
My body shakes and trembles,
My pride you did take

You promised to stay by my side,
Eyes full of false words,
My soul you took,
And so carelessly left it for the birds

It wasn't suppose to happen this way,
Just hold me in a warm embrace,
If I wish hard enough, it will all go away,
But thoughts of you make my heart race

In truth I know it won't happen,
So I have to deal with this heart break zone,
Cry, throw things, live quietly,
Because I know you'll never come home

If I knew that was our last date,
I would have held you tight,
Kissed you deeply,
Kept you by my side all night

A darkness comes over me... pain,
But I'll forget you one day,
Even if it drives me insane.

    Again some cliche lines being mixed with original descriptions. Find where your strong points are and stick to it.

    Each stanza is a sugar cube. the flavor of sweetness explodes in my mouth, and i revel in the taste and the tingleness. when its all dissolved, my mouth waters for more.
