Perpetual

People move on and people forget
Never wanting to live in regret
But leaving our memories behind as we flee
Memories of times our souls filled with glee,
May ease the pain of love lost in vain
But it also steals all of the things we could gain

For just as pure beauty met with the eyes
Causes us great joy and satisfies
So do the memories of good times and bad
Memories of all of the past loves we've had
Teach us the lessons one needs in life
Lessons to help us through pain and through strife

Although to let go is good for the heart
Never go so far as to erase the part
Heartache plays in helping us move on 
Giving our souls the hope of new dawn
We must move on and rise above regret
But never, no never can we ever forgets.

Welp... I read it so I must

Welp... I read it so I must comment.

Some people never forget
and they always live with the regret
of having spoken much too soon
without being able to follow through.
don't let go if there's still a chance
or maybe you should to give healing a chance
I don't know what to tell you
but someone out there still thinks of you.

Sometimes the words of one

Sometimes the words of one may seem niev
But pay close attention and you just may believe
That although their mind might be young and misspoken
There's nothing more true than a young heart when broken

my heart broken/ive tried to

my heart broken/ive tried to repair
by picking up the pieces/and going back where
it was destroyed/to where it was shattered
for as much as i was pissed/i thought she was all that mattered

moving on a must/they same time heals all wounds
she made my heart rust/maybe another can soothe
fix/repair/or even sew
my heart/back to the organ i used to know

i agree/you must never void the thoughts
of the one who broke you/tossed you to the rocks
i know/ive been there before
im still there/even as i type on this keyboard

and 1 more thing/i liked your poem
with this one/you really hit it home
i will be sure/to read some more
but my advice tho/stray from the one you once adored

This beautiful poem, I can't

This beautiful poem, I can't ignore.
It's beauty I really want to explore.

My heart's been broken too.
So, I can really relate to you.

It's hard to let go when someone you love,
is all that you really can think of.

Personally I lived day by day.
Hoping that something would suddenly change.

For my Heart was still wide open
wanting the love that It had chosen.

My advice to you, simple and

My advice to you, simple and clear.
Nothing heals a broken heart faster than new purpose
But beware, it's easy for the wrong person to find their way into your heart through the whole left as the last person ripped their way out.
