remembering is such an easy task
I see my dead body
flaoting on the streets
like an old used piece of cloth
full of blood and memories
that are forgotten
by everyone but me
the smell of skin fliling
my nose cavities
an earth that is only here
to make my scent
dissapear
a person thats only job
is to forget
a body that reminds me
of long touches
a brush into a skin
that is burning
I want to go
but only if my body
would fly with me
steal all those memories
and take my name from
others heads with me
a life with no meaning
why would sadness be
why would a smile burn
if i am this
a mind thats only filled
with long forgotten sadness
would you ever dream
of a nice smile
from a friendly face
comforting the heart
that was once here
remembering is such an easy task
a year or two were not enough
a life time through
long suffering dots
we are all living
to be happy
why would my life be filled
with missing spots
a tear that is holding
the past
the smell of yesterdays
finger prints
I was there breathing
out of reach
i was there looking
with somebodies eyes
if only now i had to stop
erasing a life
that two people worked hard
to make it be
remembering is such an easy task
they said to accept your past
when even they don’t accept it
where would I gather all that strength
that will of life
is there well filled of dreams
that take you away
from all of this
give you the strength
to fight
to hold your head up
hold your tears
a well that would take me in
smile at me love me
as i am
a persons love is not enough
no one cares enough
and no one will
who would choose to live
with you all those memories
i will never forget
the faces of those who scream
no one will chose to go down
remember the feel
you've got from those ugly eyes
burning you to the grounds
the darkened souls
that are very far from saving
who can choose to go down
with you
words that look for meaning
in your eyes
who can feel what you’ve felt
who will live what you have lived
take all those happy memories
and leave me with those you don’t like
i am already down
never gonna see the light
just take them and go up
maybe if you reach the end
you’ll look at me
ill be waiting with a smile
