I had my fifth dream about you last night. I remember you once told me that if you have more than three dreams about someone in a week that means they’re thinking of you.
Part of me hopes that’s true. The other part hopes otherwise.
To be honest I don’t want to think of you anymore.
I want to forget you.
I want to forget our memories.
I want to forget driving down the road blasting our favorite songs.
I want to forget staying up till 3 am playing Minecraft.
I want to forget the concerts.
I want to forget it all.
I want to forget you.
But I can’t. I can’t forget you.
You were my other half for 15 years.
How do I forget you?
How have you forgotten me?
I wish I could forget our memories. I wish I could forget you. I wish I could move on and be happy. But I can’t.
So, if what you said is true, and you are thinking of me, I hope you’re okay. I hope you’re safe.
But, I wish I could forget. But you won’t let me.
Let me forget. Let me forget you.
