Forward To Forget

Memorize the angles of my face

and tape record the way you say my name

relate the way you smell and taste

to tangibles no absence can erase

forget about the words you've said and meant

as words mean very little in the end

these memories made fresh i will defend

and i promise that i wont forget again

with feral fingers i will trace

and render all your features in your place

and pray that in the fruits have dug your place

is something fatal fate cannot erase

and shallow rise and fall behind your chest

a vacancy that lingers like like the dead

the lapsing in the cadence of your breath

a lifetime looking forward to forget

were i to exploit these memories

e.g. the space thats just above your knees

i need indulge some vulgar need

i'd hope that you'd forgive me
