Fade Away

Forget me, I never meant a thing to you

Move on, I am beginning to think that I was the one who was wrong

Go to sleep, don't waste your beautiful eyes on me

Pray to God, pray for him, your soul to keep



I never made you happy,

I never sped up your heart

I never gave you waht you wanted

I never made you think of me when we were apart



Close your eyes, it's no suprise that you never picture me in your head

Run away, go find a better man instead

Wash me out, leave me out of your memories now

Fade away, I loved you more but never showed you how



I never made you smile

I never took you places

I never showed you the way

I never killed the evils

I never made them go away

I never gave you flowers

It is my funeral today-fade away



Moving on was never so easy

Till today, when you threw our lives away

I forgot, to make things right with you

Now I'm gone, you are moving on

I don't even have a memory- fade away



I never wrote these words

I never made you smile

I never gave you love

I never last a while

Fade away

Author's Notes/Comments: 

I wrote this after readin a different poem (not mine.)  I guess i just kinda got in this 'it is all my fault' kind of mood.  I know it's nto entirely true, but at least I get out my frustrations- hope ya like this one

This one is really good but it's really sad. Memories are good things (eventually) and it's sad to think about wanting people to forget about you.
