Forget It Poem by Meredith B.

I don't want to talk about it.
I don't want you to see,
I'll explain in a minute
but for now
happy
I'll pretend to be.

I've told you too much
If I tell you any more
you'll be crushed
I'm sorry

I'm keeping you in the dark because
I think it's safe to say
I don't know
myself
plus
the light switch is broken.

I know you'll do anything
you'll cross the ocean just for
me
I can't ask you to do that so
Forget it.

Stabbed from the inside
a wrenching, horrible emptiness fills me
but all you'll ever see
Is how happy I can pretend to be.

My mind is swirling
My world is spinning
But it doesn't concern you.
Forget it.

It hurts a lot
trust me, it does
to keep this from you
but I have to.

I wish I could tell you
really, I do
but I just can't bring myself to.
Forget it.

The world keeps on going-
It won't stop for me
so neither should you
because you don't have a clue.

I don't need anyone's help
I have to learn to survive
by myself
You'll never see me cry.

If you knew you'd try to fix it
but
you
can't
so just
forget it
