I tried to get you off my mind....

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.
