The One I Can't Forget
9-6-92
You shut me out
Even though I feel that
My past is speckled
With an array of lovers
But there will always be that
That one I can't forget.
The one who hurt deep down,
And won't go away.
The pain is harder than
Anything I've known.
I've tried
So hard
To put it in the past
To move ahead.
I still love that one,
That one I can't forget.
Every time I hear that name-
I turn around and hope,
But it isn't.
Can't you see?
I just want to share it with you.
Maybe that'll make it hurt a little less.
That one I can't forget
Is part of my heart.
My heart
That wonderful little piece of me
So small,
But the pain it gives is
IMMENSE.
Give in
Let it wash over me
Or push ahead of it.
You go one way,
I go the other.
No middle ground.
Man, you have to let go.
It's not easy to accept, but
It's over.
That one ISN'T coming back.
