Lost Memories Poem by Shannon Nicole

Living within your memories
Taking the tears from your eyes
Erasing the thoughts you ever had of me
And breaking all those truths

Telling your mind not to remember me
That I was never here in the beginning
Speaking in soft whispers
Growling out words through your teeth

Everyone is telling you about this tragic event
People are crying of what's not there
Why are these people caring about what's dead
She's not coming back
Just give up

Telling people you're the only one that knows the truth
A harmful truth
It causes pain and a lifetime of misery
Disturbing thoughts
And harsh words being said

Her lovely black eyes
Swollen up, through all those tears
She cried and cried but no one helped
She smiled at the thought of her own death being placed
She looked upon the shining moon
Wished upon the invisible stars
She told the gods up in the sky that she was ready to die
She didn't think anyone would care
She thought everyone would just forget
That she would become a lost memory
But her family still cherish their thoughts of her
They just remember her last words
'I love you, Mommy and Daddy.
My time has come to an end.
I'm sorry to inform you now,
That I am forever dead.'
