I tried to get you off my mind...., by *Broken Wings* Subscribe to rss feed for *Broken Wings*

I tried to get you off my mind so I painted a picture, in
dark shades of black and gray, it started off as shapes of
nothing in particle,
 
Face, eyes, nose and mouth I painted a picture in dark
shades of black and gray, shoulders, arms, hands and fingers
I painted and I painted some more of nothing in particle

When I was done I stepped back and I looked in to his dark
eyes I started to cry harder and harder with every tear that
flowed from my eyes I felt weak,
 
today I decided to try something different I went for a walk
no where special, down the street and around the corner I
walked for hours, when I stooped I felt like I been here
before, I was on your porch, you opened the door I couldn't
speak my mind went blank so I walked away.
 
I tried to get you off my mind so I tried to write the
memories of us away, I started to write and write and I
wrote some more, after a hour I started to read what I
wrote, I felt my eyes water and my heart started to beat
faster and faster with every word I read out loud reminded
me of you. 
 
I tried to get you off my mind so I called my best friend,
nine seven three four eight five twenty twenty-two the phone
rang and rang and rang again the answering machine picked up
and I started to cry because I realized that I lost my best
friend.
