Topic:If only I could erace the memory
It took me five minutes


These memories all around me
They just won't go away
If only I could erase them
And forget from where they came

If only they weren't real
Would life ease up on me
Would my wounds forever heal
From all insanity

Would smiles fill my world again
And fight off all this pain
Would laughs suffocate life
And make me feel more sane

These memories I hold on to
Now fill me with so much regret
If only I could erase them
But do I really want to forget




No, I'm not conceited, 2sexy doesn't mean "too sexy", it means something else!

wow i loved the last stanza. i like how you first use insanity in the last line of a stanza and then use sane in the following one in the last line... does that make sense?

If you look closely you'll see that it does.

But I did realize that it's kind of redundant.

"Would my wounds forever heal / from all insanity"

"Would laughs suffocate life / and make me feel more sane"

Wouldn’t you agree that it kind of sounds the same, just worded differently? So it does make sense but it’s redundant.

No, I'm not conceited, 2sexy doesn't mean "too sexy", it means something else!
