Forgotten

#vj69Ai #storyteller #dayinmylife #forgotten #Forgotten The candles are lit but the room is a grave A table for two a promise yes I know - you never gave Did the engine fail? Did the world cave in? Or was I always just a "might've been"? I STAND IN THE HOLLOW WHERE YOUR VOICE SHOULD BE FORGOTTEN ON THE DAY THAT WAS SUPPOSED TO SAVE ME Forgotten… forgotten… Forgotten… forgotten… you let the silence sign… I rehearsed the words to make you believe That one broken man could still learn to breathe Did the rain wash my number from your phone? Or was I just convenient till you weren't alone? I STAND IN THE HOLLOW WHERE YOUR VOICE SHOULD BE FORGOTTEN ON THE DAY THAT WAS SUPPOSED TO SAVE ME Forgotten… forgotten… I saved you a seat… I saved you a lie You saved nothing, but a Thursday goodbye “Nothing… nothing…” The universe looked sideways. The love left. I’m the man of a promise - undeaf. “This was supposed to be the day The day someone finally chose me. Not the backup. Not the ‘maybe later.’ Not the last call when everyone left. You left me standing. In a room of two empty chairs. Happy sad day to me." I kneel in the ruins of what could have been Forgotten by my most important sin Forgotten… forgotten… Forgotten… forgotten… yeah, the door bell don’t ring for me… forgotten… Forgotten… forgotten… you let the silence sign…
