The Last Poem

I dig at these wounds and make them bleed Because that's the only time you're near Lost deep in the decaying memories Where your voice was the only thing I'd hear I tortured myself with your beautiful eyes But now it is time to let go Hoping the smile on my face will hold So my sadness won't ever show It's time to put you out of my mind And move on to better things I've hurt myself long enough, it seems Even though my heart still stings It's time to let your memory fade And to be cleansed of you through and through For these last few words will now belong To the last poem I'll ever write about you
