Forgetting to Remember

Forgetting to Remember

before i left

she wrote me a card

that read, Happy Birthday on it

but that i disregard

i open it to see her letters shine

smiling after each sentence i read

but it caught me off guard when i read,

“please don’t forget me”

saddened by those words

i think, “i’ll still talk to her”

but now thinking back to our memories

they’re all just a blur

but how could i forget

she was the closest friend to me

haven’t spoken to her in years

i think it’s been three

caught up in my own life

so i forgot about her’s

and the guilt in my stomach tells me

that’s not what she deserves
