Poetry Tuesdays: Forget

Amy Shannon

I try to make it go away

I do not want to remember

I want to forget

the years that have passed

have not taken it away

the years that have passed

do not allow me to forget

the pain

the shame

the embarrassment

i want it to go away

i wish it never happened.

my heart hurts all over again

sometimes i wonder

what if it never happened

what if I died that day

would i still feel the pain i do now

would i still be haunted

was it inevitiable

could i have stopped it

why does it haunt me

why can't it go away

I try to make it go away

i do not want to remember

i want to forget

but it will always be there.

lingering
