in the past
i have done things
i want to forget
can i close my eyes
and let it all go away
let the rose petals fly
to the sky
and let the memories die
cutting skin
scars under the shirt
crying in a dark room
with the music booming
trying to forget
everything i have done
trying to take
the one big step
to forgiving myself
let the tears fall
and hit the ground
maybe with a little luck
everything else will fall with them

Sometimes it's not the forgetting, but in the remembering when we can truly move on. Great job on the poem. Message me if you need anything.

I've done a lot of things that I'd like to forget too, but in some ways I don't want to forget them. They make me stronger and help me learn from the past. I can totally relate to this. This is a well written poem...I really enjoyed reading it.
