I came across old pictures of us

Memories which were thought hidden sprang forth like a rushing river and drowned me in a sea of rage

You should have never left me for another

You left me to sink in a sea of pain

Why is fate so cruel to laugh in my face

Taunting and shaming me to disgrace

I thought we were to last forever

We were supposed to always be together

Setting the pictures aflame; gasoline and a match to purge my memories of you

Sets sparks that fly then shower around me like rain

You will remember my name

You will never wash yourself of the shame of the string of broken hearts you left in your wake

Now the funeral is set to go

My heart has died and is buried

Tucked away in the unforgiving deep

Rest now, dear heart and go into eternal sleep

If you think you win, then you're dead wrong

Burn and purge these bitter memories away

Cleanse my soul of your sick disgusting sins

Till my mind and my soul are free of your grip and my body can take another trip with celebration and happiness galore

There are other ones - more worthy of me in store

My tears are like rivers

A smile on my face

I've purged you out of existence

I'm finally light
