I don’t plan to ever forget that day. If I do I might as well be dead. Because you can’t just say Yep Everything Is Fine When really It isn’t. To forget was to forgive. And I knew I would never forget

words cut like knifes, cutting you until you drop, They say they dont mean it but still rip my heart out? “Im sorry” It’s always the same and nothing changes but But then I hear them again and again, I cry and get up like nothing. I’ve accepted it and walk away because to forget was to forgive, and I knew I would never forget.

You can point the finger You can blame me For the disillusion of your life Make me the villain Make me the enemy I guess that’s fine Punish me for loving you But let the judgement fit the crime All I ever did Was love you In this life Wanted to be everything Give everything Do anything to make you happy Time and space Couldn’t have kept me away Would have travel anywhere Don’t you see? But you fumbled me Threw me away Like I’m worthless And I don’t matter And that’s never okay To forget was to forgive And I knew I would never forget Would have done anything I swear it But this is the thanks I get

Holding onto this was agony, so they asked me to relent. But to forget was to forgive, and I would never forget.

It’s too hard to forget, but forgiveness isn’t based on me forgetting. She said to forget, but my mind and heart can’t forgive. Whey should I forget, since it’s too hard to forgive? To forget was to forgive, and I knew I would never forget.

A flashback darted through my memory, So quick and so sudden, like lightening, Leaving a burning imprint on my mind, Smoking and black, Telling myself its just a fleeting memory, Of a dream perhaps, Its nothing, just forget it, The memory creeps back in more and more, Suddenly I feel the fear that was instilled in me, I now know this wasn't a dream, A memory, so dark and furious, It plays in my head like a drum, Pounding to the beat of my screams and cries, I now remember, Buried deep inside in order to survive, But I couldn't block it out forever, The piece of my life I had been missing for years, To forget was to forgive, and I know now that I will never forget.

If only I wanted to be here Maybe I would have If I was prettier Smarter Funnier Maybe I was built wrong Maybe whoever made me forgot to read the instructions They didn’t tighten my boobs enough They made them too small They forgot to straighten my hair It’s too curly Too frizzy They must’ve forgotten the eye drops I’m stuck with a boring brown No freckles Nothing interesting except Flaws That’s all people seem to pick on anyway I can’t forget Everything that went wrong In the process of building me To forget was to forgive And I knew I would never forget

You hurt me and you know it, But you pretend and don’t show it. You love her in front of me, And my heart breaks each time you leave, But in reality I never had you in the first place. I thought we had something, But you played with all my feeling. I laid them bare in front of you, And you brushed them off as something untrue. So to the memory of us I cry, No matter how hard I try. Bitter in every effect, For they are all I reflect. To forget was to forgive, and I knew I would never forget.

I would never forget The time she walked into my life I would never forget The way her hair felt in my hands I would never forget The way she smiled with her eyes Eyes like the sun lighting up inside I would never forget The way she smelled when coming home late I would never forget The way I and others smiled at her because her smile was too hard to forget I would never forget The way her lips pulled down after every argument I would never forget that last smile she gave me right before she walked out the door Never to be seen again I don’t think I’ll ever forget how long I waited How long I waited for that sun to shine again And again To forget was to forgive, and I knew I would never forget.

There was this lesson I learned And not the easy way Where friendships were tested and trust turned into betrayal Where love was broken and disturbed by lust Yet life continuously came back full circle We are here to lead with love and always have pure intentions They say having a good heart can be dangerous But if it will leave me with my peace that’s all I need The lesson I learned was that To forget was to forgive, and I knew I would never forget.
