To Be Forgotten?
What does it really mean to be forgotten?
Can you say that I was a memory that got rotten?
Or a reflection you don’t notice so often
Or something you really don’t want to remember or see
Or just someone you just didn’t want to keep
Having different thoughts
You think about the possibilities
The fact that you are overthinking and reminiscing
While the other has left all the memories missing
It’s painful knowing you care and the other doesn’t
It’s dreadful, thinking the other was there for you, meanwhile they weren’t
And it becomes worse, realizing you are just a reflection of the others’ past and they live a better life……even better than the last
So now, making my refrain,
I’ll ask again what does it really mean to be forgotten?
To be regarded as
Only a companion in the past,
An attention seeker in the present,
and a former friend in the future…
It may seem funny,
but it’s the ugly truth with no irony
That ‘your other’ may be a blessing in disguise
God-sent……to make you wise.
