From this night on

by emma-*gemini* - Not entered

i will never shed 
another tear
not a thing you can do
will make me cry
i vow from now on
to forget you
you are now
expendible
your name, your face:
meaningless
the grip you had on me
is lost
i'm giving myself 
my word
my word is gold, and you
know that
this has gone on
too long
my heart won't 
let go
even though my mind says
move on
now i'll live life with
my head
no longer listening to 
my heart
but i will give myself
tonight
tonight to weep
remaining tears

tonight

to 

remember...

but as i blow out
this candle
i extinguish 
you
and the 
power
your image once
carried
good-bye...

i'll 

miss

you...

Reason for writing:

    i realized i really need to move on, and now is the time
