Crash and Burn

Memories

The person I am is

Not the person I was

I believe maybe I was happier or maybe

I was just more reckless than I am now

But there comes a time when living fast is too fast

You are going straight and fast for too long

And you have to crash and burn

You have to forget

Who you were

And what you did

And who you did

Forget the late nights

The tangled limbs

Crash and burn up all the memories

All the feelings

Burn your

Very essence away

Till you are left

With nothing

And nobody

Till you forget what you looked like

Crash and burn
