Absence

absence makes the heart forget, 

but I'll always remember the day that we met.

I'll remember your smile and your face,

your loving gaze and your warm embrace.


but soon these memories will fade, 

all the laughs, every joke we ever made.

the little things will stick with me, I swear,

the small gestures and how you always seemed to care.


and as I'm counting down the days,

I'll forever wish you decided to stay.

but now it's time to break this chain, 

it's time to put an end to all this pain.


because just as easily as you said goodbye,

I'll always remember the day that I said hi.
