Make Me Forget

You almost made me forget, love.
   You almost made me forget the hurt; the pain; the sorrow.
      You almost made me forget about the emptiness:
                 You almost made me forget his name.

You almost gave me hope;
    You almost made me think that I might be whole again;
                                    Someday.
      You almost gave me hope that I can be fixed,
            You almost made me think that maybe,
                       I could fall in love again.
     You gave me hope that maybe; I really wasn't this
                               B-R/O-K/E-N

You almost made my heart beat faster,
   You almost made me really smile,
      You almost made me want to let you in;
        You almost made me want to be with you;
                You almost made me think I could be happy.

You almost made me forget, baby.
   You almost made me forget that he and I ever happened.
     You almost made me forget his face & his eyes; the color of deep emeralds.
         You almost made me forget the way he kissed me,
               You almost made me forget they way it felt when he held me.
                                     You almost made me forget.
                                      _{{Why couldn't you make me forget?}}

You almost gave me hope that I was strong,
   You almost made me think that I had enough left to make it through,
                                   You almost gave me hope.

You almost made me think you could heal me,
  You almost made me wanna try and make it work with you,
               You almost became my light;
                                                      You almost became something to keep me together.
                          You almost kept me from falling apart.
                                                  You almost made me forget.

Baby, I want to forget.
I want to forget they way he looked at me with his dark forest eyes.
                        I want to forget his taste,
                        I want to forget his face
                        I want to forget the way he said my name;
                        I want to forget the way he said he loved me.
                        I want to forget he ever loved me.
                        I want to forget his scent,
                        I want to forget the way his arms wrapped so tightly around me;
                        I want to forget the way it felt to have him hold me.
I want to forget.

Please, darling, make me forget
                                      _{{therestoomuchpaininthememories}}

MAKE ME FORGET!
                                  Please;
                                             I don't wanna remember.

These memories are haunting me,
But you keep the demons away,
So will you please stay?

You almost made me forget,
    You almost gave me hope
          You almost made me want you
& You could have succeeded in all these things but,
                               You left.

You left me alone for one short moment,
But it was long enough for the pain to come back,
& by the time you returned, I remembered everything.

You almost made me forget-
    I need to forget!

Baby, make me forget.
   Look at me with your summer-storm eyes,
    & be my summer rain in the dead of winter,
        Wash away my hurt, cleanse me.
          Drown everything out be the very existence of you, of me, of us.

I need to be held together,
So wrap me up in your arms and hold me close,
   Don't let go;
I don't wanna fall apart tonight.

Hold me closely,
Let me heal in your protective embrace,
Let me forget,
Erase my pain with your words and lips.

I don't know exactly where this is going
All I know is that I need you, you make me forget the pain
& Right now, that's exactly what I need,
So darling, hold me, kiss me, tell me you love me,
& Make me forget.
