Forgetting you

Forgetting you

Your bittersweet kisses

Make me forget

The worse is gone

When I am with you, I'm at my highest

When you’re gone I feel my lowest

Loving you will kill me yet,

I can’t stop

I know having you stay is a hidden sin

But I think of you every day

Your smile entices me

Your eyes invite me

Your laugh excites me

Your cries break me

Hurting you was not planned, but loving you was

I wish I could take it back

Feel your touch

But you are my past

And someone else’s future

You are not mine

And I need to forget you

This poem is a very deep and emotional poem that makes whoever reads it feel the way the author felt while writing it. Good job!

This poem was deep and heart touching. I felt like I was feeling the emotions the author felt. It was a great poem, but I think line 17 should be removed. But other than that, the poem and the author was excellent!!

Great literature, maybe remove the line where it says feel your touch before you are my past

I loved this poem because I could feel in my bones how deep it was and I can tell based on all the powerful emotions that were portrayed that whoever this is about really hurt you. I'm sorry that happened and I hope you feel better soon!

Favorite Quote:
Her heart was an open book with beautiful pages and detailed lettering. She wanted people to read her story in hopes that it would make them write their own. Instead, every person who came across the pages of her heart ripped out their favorite story and took it with them. They folded back pages and bent up corners. They signed their name with sloppy writing and with a simple 'goodbye'. This book is now tucked away in the darkest parts of her, because no one wants to read a tragic story with a bad ending.

Beautiful! Inspiring.

Literally just be yourself. You are amazing and all anybody wants is for you to be yourself.

I was scrolling through the pages and pages of endless poems by named and unnamed people, growing tired of how many poems I had read, but none hit me quite like this one has. Very special poem we have here.
