Absolutely Nothing, by 00YuviDani00
|
I remember the times
They are stuck in my memories
I can see the pictures
As if they were glued onto the inside of my eyelids
Every time I close my eyes I see them
As clear as daylight
I can hear your voice
It recorded itself in my mind
Every night before I rest my head and close my tired eyes
I can hear it
Whispering
Talking
Screaming
I hear it
I remember your interests
I turn around
Left, right
Right, left
I see something that resembles you
I remember everything
I remember every part of you
Inside out
As if I had just seen it two minutes ago
But that’s not possible is it
And I want to forget
But all I do is remember
Why?
How come every picture I see, every smell I inhale, every
place that I go
I remember you
I don’t get it
What did I do to deserve this?
I know
Confusing
Would think that remembering my dad
My father
I would feel glad, joyful, or tranquil
But I don’t
I don’t feel glad, or joyful, and especially not calm
I feel irritated
Betrayed
I feel sad
And angry
I feel broken
I was daddy’s little girl
And he left
He just left me
No sign
No clue
No reason
When I got home one evening, he just wasn’t there
That’s why I feel how I feel
‘Cuz he took my happiness with him
He took it for himself
And without my permission
As a memory?
Just to bug me?
For no reason?
I don’t know
And to be truthful
I don’t care
No matter the reason
He still took it
And it wasn’t his to take
Because stealing has its consequences
It has its price
And the consequence for you taking my happiness
Is much worse than pain
It’s much worse than suffering
It’s much worse than hate
Your price is me feeling nothing for you
Absolutely nothing
Not hate
That only hurts me
Not love
That makes no sense
Not indifference
That’s just confusing
Not understanding
Because I don’t understand
Not even close
Feeling nothing is what I feel for you
It’s the perfect emotion
The right feeling
I don’t want to feel betrayed, or sad, or angry
You’re not worth it
Not even one bit
So why would I hurt myself
When I’m trying to hurt you
There’s no point
So I went searching
I went looking deep inside myself
To change my train of thought
To change the way I felt
And luckily,
My effort was not futile
I found what I was looking for
I found what I was seeking for since you left
I discovered nothingness
And now that I feel nothing
I am going to try to regain my happiness
The happiness you took was the real thing
But if I trick myself
Of I pretend I have my real happiness back
And not a replacement
I think I could forget
I think I could forget that you took something I most
treasured
I could forget your face
I could forget your voice
I could forget your interests
I could forget you
And I think that’s the cure
To pretend
And to rebuild my happiness
Wow….
What an epiphany
And I am so eager to start
I just can’t wait
I don’t want to remember anymore
I don’t want to feel the sting
So why not start now?
I’m too impatient
So let me begin
I’m happy
I’m joyful
I’m elated
I’m glad
And who is that guy again?
