...A Desperate Attempt To Forget...

Emptiness fills this place,
my heart still beats for you
The tears still fall down
to me thats nothing new

bitterness fills my heart
silent hate, just look away
no value in what I've found
no more begging you to stay

I won't forget what its like to breathe you in
Your taste still lingers on my lips,
I can still see me in your eyes
I feel your face on my fingertips

I remember every word you said
I remember every lie
I'll never forget the promises
I won't forget how you didn't try,

I know what made you fall away
I know why you were scared,
Do you think I'd be the mistake,
Do you think I never cared

Somewhere lost inside my thoughts,
Your there when I close my eyes,
You haunt my eager dreams
A love now only to be despised,

I'm giving up on everything
Giving up on you
Letting go of memories
Forgetting what we knew

I took your pictures down
I threw the notes away
Erased the desperate thought
That you'd ever want me to stay,

Take my heart out of my throat
I'll hide it deep down, so you can never see
Your speechless so I'll whisper goodbye
All you ever left me with was your sorry...

I see me frowning in your eyes...
I see the fear in you...
Where no one ever should be...

wow, this is so amazing. I love it! I'm gonna keep it if you don't mind. You really used some talent here, I could relate so well. Awesome job.

Love is giving him the ability to break your heart...but trusting him enough to know he won't.

Wow. The emotions in this were so strong. I really liked the lines, "I'll never forget the promises I won't forget how you didn't try." and "All you ever left me with was your sorry..."
Great work!!

I'll never forget the promises
I won't forget how you didn't try,


awesome lines, this almost reads like a song...some lines do seem familiar from popular ones, and i remember one person who just randomly posted mudvayne lyrics as their own...so at first i was worried, but then i could tell it was yours. it's really awesome, thanks for sharing. going in my lib.

hehe nope its all me...I would never take anything from a song...Someone posted a song by my fav band and they arent really popular yet so I'm sure that person didn't know that anyone knew them, but I did, I wrote to them and said something, they never wrote back or anything...
But I don't believe in taking other peoples work )
Thanks for reading!!!
