A poem about trying to forget a lost love.
So far she has come along the long road to Forget.
She's travelled now for miles, and knows she'll get there yet.
The road's been bitter, lonely, as she walks her path alone.
If only, oh, if only, she could make her heart like stone.
For if she could control her heart, she'd never have to fear
That on this long road to Forget she might meet him here.
How silly, how cowardly, she chides herself then.
You should now be able to greet him and call him only friend.
For long days he's been dead to her, and thus his grip is weak.
Until the quiet covers her, night falls and darkness in does seep.
Lost in the darkness she closes her eyes
Even there she sees him and she cries.
Opening her eyes, seeing the truth, she collapses in despair.
She never started on the road to Forget, she never will get there.
