Forget

Hold your breath,
close your eyes,
forget him,
and the pain dies.

forget it all,
including those lips.
Especially the way he looked at you,
when he had his hands all over your hips.

forget those long nights,
so much time spent in that bed.
and now he's gone,
and you'd rather be dead.

forget how your tongue feels cut,
how your heart is shattered,
forget him,
and how nothing ever mattered.
