I Forgot

by Cathy   May 14, 2007


I forgot about you and the days we once knew
I forgot about the talks that use to last the whole night through
I forgot about the laughter me and you shared
I forgot that I use to love you I forgot I use to care

I just got so caught up on the things that surrounded me
at times I felt so blind I begged god to let me see
I never meant to hurt you by forgetting what was important in my life
I never meant to mess things up I only wanted to do things right

But things have seemed to follow in their own footsteps
and I am living my life now watching you in regret
I thought I had things in control I never meant to lose
I only wanted to be with you, I'm sorry if you felt used

I know I forgot to be there all the times you use to cry
I know I forgot I loved you, and instead just said goodbye
So to you my one and only, the one I will love till the end of time
I'm sorry that I forgot about you, when I had you mine

    Cathy, this is a poem that is so relateable in so many ways.......My best friend decided to up and leave me when I needed her the most and this poem here left me wondering "does she feel like this?".....you know, as long as you realize your mistake I guess thats a positive thing even though you lost someone you loved so much....you can just only pray they are forgiving to get things back on track......this was a very good poem that I for one have been in the same situation!
    I really enjoyed!

    your poem always take my breath away. I havent managed to be on here as much cause of my work and then the first poem i read by you is so sad. You still have a way to touch people through your words. Stay strong and take care.

    This is very sad. Guilt and remorse can eat away at our souls. The emotions in this piece come through touching ones heart. Great job.
    Take care Cindy
