Forget

I want you to forget

Forget the smoothness of their skin

And how good it felt

When you touched them

Forget the scent of their hair, their perfume

Forget the softness of their lips

The sweetness of their voice, their laughter

And the beauty of their smile

Forget how perfect they were

In their clothes or out of them

Forget how smart, How pretty

How funny, they were

Forget everything about them

Forget, So that when you are silent

I would know for sure

That you do not long

For some happy moment

In your past

Spent with them

Of which I know nothing

I need you to forget

Forget the places you went with them

How you held hands

And wished it would never end

Forget about the times

When you made love to them

How passionate it was

How pleasurable, how perfect

Forget how your friends liked them

Even your friends must forget them too

Forget everything about them

So you can be truly, totally mine

You will become like a virgin

And then I’ll be your first love

Your last love, your only love
