Memories
It’s hard to lose someone
 That you really care about
 And the feelings that you feel
 Just make you cry and shout 
 
 It’s not fair that I 
 Have to see you slip away 
 And it’s hard to accept
 That you can even be this way 
 
 Especially when just a year ago,
 You were still you.
 But now everything’s changed 
 And it’s making me feel blue. 
 
 But crying and screaming
 Won’t change a thing. 
 So I’ll try to be strong 
 And smile through the pain.
 
 No one understands
 What it is really like 
 To have someone you love
 Completely change your life.
 
 I feel sad, angry, and scared
 All at the same time. 
 To have you completely forget me
 Is one of life’s worst crimes. 
 
 I miss the way you held me, 
 And how you were so strong. 
 I miss how you made me smile
 When everything else seemed wrong. 
 
 And now the only person 
 Who used to take away the tears
 Is no longer wiping them away,
 But causing them to appear  
 
 I would give almost anything
 Just to spend a normal day with you 
 When you could still remember me,
 And you said you loved me, too. 
 
 I know that someday you’ll be you again, 
 But that won’t be for a while,
 Not in either of our lifetimes 
 Or before I walk down the aisle. 
 
 So I’ll have to just keep living,
 And let this make me stronger. 
 Because it doesn’t help either of us
 For me to cry any longer.
