Forgotten 1

Author's Note: Oh my gosh, it's been so long since I've written any poetry that I can't do it any more.  So - my verbal vomit for the day.  Not even sure where it came from, things are actually really looking up right now... *shrug* - I think this must be some residual emotion from some time ago.  Not directed towards anyone I know now personally.

You don't know me
As daylight fades, as it fades
Time drains your heart of empathy
Melts the sky to different shades

And it is over when its over
It was a dream that could not stay
Another heart-ache for tomorrow
Or for another day

As my memory fades
No time left for you to say...
'Goodbye'

As we go our separate ways
You go on and I'm the same
Same broken heart, a different day
What never was and could not be
Time digs its shallow grave

It was like finding what I'd lost
And losing it again
A figment of a dream
Over before it really began

I took my heart and wore it out
I could scream and I could shout
But it was easier to cry

I ran myself out of tears
For countless moments, forgotten years
Misplaced trust and frozen fears
To surrender to what should have been
But could never be

You could never have known my pain
And still left me here this way
The story you had written
Shouldn't end up that way
