Amnesia

Part 1

All Flaws Exposed

I told myself I wouldn’t forget...

and I did.

I forgot who I was

And I forgot what you said

I forgot what you did

I forgot the words that made me leave

I forgot the actions that made me see

I forgot because I was made to believe

That the lesson of two evils

Was to always be me

And...

In some way I still stand by those words

I just can’t be the lesser of two evils

When it’s you against my every word

When the person I hold close

Is the one who stabs me first

And last

How do I stand

With both legs in a cast

How do I smile

With my teeth knocked out

How do I pose

With bruises about

How do I move forward

Dragging along the past

How do I ascend

Still giving up
