Surprise Me!

John Westlake - 156. Was it wrong of me

Was it wrong of me
things went so bad too fast
I could not stay to watch the end
had to get away from it all

The memories we made
I've packed away
in the black leather suitcases
that they arrived in 7 years ago
now I need to try to clear them from my head

But I can still feel the desire
that I had for you
will someone else cure it? ?
and I still feel the caress of your left hand
please just stop it
so I can just rest and escape away
before I go crazy

I know that it's not that simple
most of you will never fade from here
so rather than forget you completely
I will raise a memorial in my mind
to how it once was
and let it stand for now in place
until time wears it away

John Westlake
