Try To Forget

by Jesicah Rockfire - Leo

Why won't your memory
Let me be?
Why won't it let
Me live in peace?
I've tried to move on,
But every corner that I come to,
There you are.
The more I try to run away,
The faster you go to catch up.
People always tell me how you're doing,
No matter how often I tell them
I don't care how you are.
It's impossible to get through a day
Without hearing your name.
I try to forget you,
But no one will let me.

Reason for writing:

    I wrote this back in January of 2001. BJ and I have a lot of mutual friends, and people assumed that I wanted to know who he was with, what he was doing, etc. Memories of the things he's done to me always pop into my mind. I wish I could just forget that he was ever in my life.
