Let Me Forget You

I saw you every day,
Sat with you during class,
Barley even talked to you,
Just stared foolishly.

I didn’t really know you,
Didn’t know what you were like,
But that never changed the fiery feeling,
Spreading all across my heart.

That feeling is a special feeling,
One that makes me feel all happy,
It’s the one that tells me I seem to be in love,
And you were the one that stole my heart.

You’re a year older,
I haven’t seen you since last year,
I still remember how nervous I was,
Standing right in front of you.
My palms were hot in anticipation,
I wish I didn’t have to say goodbye.

I remember how my heart beat loudly,
Pounding against my fragile chest.
I remember how warm your body was,
Wrapped up in my shaky arms,
As I wished you the best.

I remember how I left the hug,
A smile spread across my face,
My blood was pumping with great hope,
The hope that I might be able to see you again.

But it seems that will never happen,
You have moved to a new home,
All the way out of the country,
Far away from me.

Ever since that day I have missed you,
Your blue eyes that were a deep portal of beauty,
So easy to get lost in.
They were the set of eyes that always caught my gaze,
Making me forget the world around me,
Like I was in a beautiful cave.

I miss the way your lips pulled back into that smile,
The one you sneakily tried to hide,
The one that made you look so cute,
And made me feel all giddy inside.

I’ve missed you for too long,
The sand in the hour glass is almost gone,
I think it’s time for me to move on,
But I fear my love for you is too strong.

It’s times like these I wish I could stop my missing,
Stare into space without you on my mind,
Stare at your old seat in front of me,
The memories of the one sided love not replaying.

And although we did not share the love I felt,
I still felt my heart breaking,
It’s times like these when I remember everything,
And wish I could just forget.
