Lewis Furey

I said that I’d forget you
decided to
forget you
I swore I wouldn’t let you
be an obsession
I’d made my mind up
but then I lost it
completely

If I had never let you
into my life like some invasive sickness
Tonight, perhaps I’d have a life
not be reaching out
for nothing -
touching nothing

You see I thought it mattered,
this fantasy,
no really
I thought that you could love me
I know it’s crazy
How could you love me
it doesn’t matter
Forgive me
