Things to forget

The warmth
Our interlaced fingers
Beautiful skin and unfortunate hair
Rosy cheeks and a heart laid bare
The sound of your heartbeat
The songs we sang well
The ones we butchered
Our spot at the park
Your warm breath on my skin
Your forehead kiss
Your crooked teeth
The lopsided smile
The gorgeous grin
Our secret meets
Our feeble attempts at dancing
My lipstick on your cheek
Our long walks
The longer drives


Your anger
Your promises
Your coldness
The darkness I waited for you in
The last time I heard your voice
The last time I saw you
The last time we held hands
The last time we hugged
The last time we walked together
The last time you said you loved me.
