Forget


Wash my lipstick from your mirror 
wash your sheets so you smell me no more 
pretend like I have hurt you like all the others have before 

forget the way I kiss your lips and how you hold the door 
Remember not the nights of peace shared behind your bedroom door

Forget how much I loved you or how hard I tried 
forget the fact that you forgot me 
and how many times you lied

 Forget the way I held you as I cried massive tears 
forget the way you were my safe place for OH so many years 

Forget the many transgressions I silently forgave 
hold onto all your bitterness for that is what you crave

Some day may you find 
my lipstick amongst the cracks in the couch 
or smell the smell of lilacs and hear my name come out

Someday may you remember what it's like to love without reason and what you left behind
Someday maybe you will call me and remember I won't mind
