I Will Never Forget You Poem by Laura Clayton

I remember staying up until 2am
Talking about nothing with you
But it was worth the bags under my eyes
Because I love all that you say and do

Do you recall that night we almost kissed?
When the moon was full in the sky
I know that we both wanted this
But we were too afraid
So we lied

I used to think about you every single day
I thought I was in love with you
But love isn’t supposed to work that way

I guess you were just too damaged to love me
If you let me I would have set you free
From the anchor that dragged you down
I would have always been around

Now you are gone
And I don’t know what to be
But I could never hate you for deserting me
Because seasons change and so do minds

I won’t forget all those nights
We lay on the roof gazing at the city lights
I won’t forget all that we’ve been through
And I will never forget you
