I'm Too Easy to Forget

I'm Too Easy to Forget

Do you remember the promises we used to make?
You whispered forever, but silence answered back.
I'm still waiting here beneath the same tired stars.
You left, yet your name lingers in my breath.
I try to release you, but the air still holds your scent.
Even time seems reluctant to erase your shadow.
But, why? I'm too easy to forget.

Do you understand how your absence rewrote my sky?
The light feels different without your gaze.
I'm still standing here where your smile once lived.
Laughter wears a mask stitched from empty days.
They tell me to heal, but you echo in my stillness.
Even peace trembles in your memory's weight.
But, why? I'm too easy to forget.

Do you notice how I vanish from your pages?
Like a chapter skipped or ink washed by rain.
I'm still hoping here, tracing ghosts in footprints.
You walked away, and I stayed with the goodbye.
My reflection blurs with the silence you left behind.
Even mirrors pretend I was never there.
But, why? I'm too easy to forget.

Do you feel the gravity of what we used to be?
It presses heavier than the quiet between stars.
I'm still breathing here with wounds no eyes can see.
Your absence fills the room louder than presence.
I speak to the wind, wondering if it still knows your name.
Even dreams avoid your shape in sleep's embrace.
But, why? I'm too easy to forget.

Do you regret the love we painted in the storm?
Its colors still drip along the walls of my soul.
I'm still bleeding here from memories that don't fade.
Every sunrise arrives as a cruel reminder.
You've moved beyond, and I remain in the echo.
Even the stars avert their gaze from me.
But, why? I'm too easy to forget.

Do you care that I'm unraveling in hush?
Like a song that dies before the chorus.
I'm still crying here in poems you'll never read.
Each verse a wound stitched with longing.
The world continues, but I remain undone.
Even the seasons forget we once bloomed.
But, why? I'm too easy to forget.

Do you dream of me when the night grows cruel?
Or has sleep erased me, too?
I'm still loving here, though love bears no name.
I carry you like a grief I've learned to cradle.
The wind no longer brings your scent home.
Even farewells lacked the courage to be spoken.
But, why? I'm too easy to forget.
