Don’t Forget to Remember Me

You take a deep breath and turn to leave.
A tear forms and falls down my cheek.
You see it and wipe it off with your sleeve.
I smile weakly and kiss you gently,
Knowing that you are not coming back.

I close my eyes and choke back a sob,
The tears streaming out of my eyes.
I’m trying to burn a picture of you in my head.
I don't want to forget you dark crazy hair.
Or your amazing grace.
And your sweet but shy smile,
It always seem like you had a little secret you were hiding behind it.
I guess you did have a secret.
It was that you were going to leave me here,
Lying face down in the dirt,
Ten times worse than the way you found me.
You pick me up,
And then you throw me down.
I feel like you have just thrown me off a 50 story building.

You look at me with those brown eyes.
All-full of shame.
I try not to look into them, but they call me to you,
Like they always do.
I don’t want you to go but you say you have to.
I say you don’t.

It seems impossible that a week ago we were just fine.
You were loving and affectionate as always.
I was my sweet shy self.
Now everything is a mess and you are leaving

I feel abandon and forgotten.
It doesn’t seem fair.
But I guess that is how the world is,
Not fair.

You say it’s for the best.
I say it’s for the worst.
We are two halves of a whole us.
Without you I’m a whole broken me.
I just pray that you don't forget to remember me.

Wow, I think this is even better than the original. And I really liked that one.

That part reminds me of part of a song that my Dad wrote for me when I was little.

"Blue eye's, we'll see changes
with the passing of time.
But one day you'll look into
my eye's and see that
I'm sill in love with you."

I found the lyrics to my song a month or two ago, and when I read that I just started bawling 'cause he left about...four years ago. And when I showed my mom she asked me,
"Do you think he knew?"

But yea, fantastic write.

Thanks so much. I'm still working on it a little bit. It needs tweaked a little. Some things still dont sound right to me.
