i managed to forget you

i don't recall reading this
but i must have cried, anyway
must have hurt me profoundly
so i changed somehow that day

everything was going fine
you could have been mine
but you decided, instead,
to walk away

and here in my mind
i erased it all
pretended like
i didn't take the fall

everything was going fine
you could have been mine
but you decided, instead
to pull away

i don't remember how i felt
did my heart race a bit
when i saw my name
as you carelessly wrote it?

everything was going fine
you could have been mine
but you decided, instead
to write those words.

if you didn't mean it
you could have fooled me
did you even hesitate
or jot them with ease?

everything was going fine
you could have been mine
no matter what you
thought you knew.

I was young, but you see
there was a depth to me
i had a foundation and a
heart full of loyalty


everything was going fine
but i guess it wasn't
eventually, i managed to
forget you, didn't i?
