Attachment Part 2 Poem by Kate Kate

Don't get attached is what I have to tell myself.
Because I can already see a future of me losing them
But I know I am going to forget about this
Forget about how much this means to me
Is forgetfulness a coping mechanism for me?
Or was it not that important to me?
Why do some traumatic things stick and others don't
I don't want to be the only one getting attached
I don't want this to be one side
I want to be important, and memorable.
I don't want this end
I will hold it close to me till all the seconds run out
Because I don't want to feel guilty for forgetting about it.
