The End of You Missing Me



I don't think that anything
Will ever hurt me as bad
As the end of you missing me
It's like I'd never really lost you
Until the moment of realization
That I never cross your mind
Anymore
And I prayed every night for a year
"Please don't let him him forget me"
But you forgot me
And sometimes I feel
If I don't exist in your thoughts
Then I don't exist at all
I used to be
Your first call
And I can't get that back
No I doubt I'll never recover
From falling out of your mind

  1. Nice. You could have to refine your writing. I am not saying that you are not doing well. But I seek more improvement.

  8. Loved it. A terrible moment is that, indeed. The moment we think of each other is the definition of "present"

  9. Hi...Speaking from experience as someone who has lived a long time...People actually do die without you in their memory. I am reasonably positive about this. :-)More important for you is who you keep in memory.

  10. Hi Kara,
    It almost looks like you are speaking my real life account through your words. Poignant, succinct and brutally honest.
    Thank you for sharing it.
