They told me...

They told me I would get over it,
They told me I would forget.
They told me it would go away,
The pain wasn't here to stay.

I have been apart,
Longer than together,
Not made any difference of any sort.

They didn't tell me I would think of him..
Often, once everyday unbidden...
That all memories go down in indelible ink...
That it hurts forever, more than you think!
