Erasing You

another drop of crimson
on the cold floor
splattering then drying
before repeating once more

there's no way
to cut your being
from my skin
there's not a day
that passes me by
where I don't stop
and think of you

I can't simply forget
the love
I can't simply erase
regret
as I realize
what it was you did to me

you threw me away
like I was nothing to you
how do you live that way?
not ever realizing what you've done?

every time I try to forget you
the memories rush on through
and there's no way
to erase you
from my skin
I cannot erase you
from my mind
I cannot erase you
from my very actions

you've consumed
every inch of me
and carved a nook out
for yourself
within my soul

and even though I'm free
you still linger
upon me
