I know I'll never forget her,
But I'm trying anyway,
I have to keep moving forward,
To keep my mind from her all day,
She promised me forever,
And I look up at the moon,
Forever is severed,
And I'm licking my wounds

Aw. This was nice. There's tons of songs, poems, novels etc. about how people feel after breakups or losing someone. This was a nice, fresh way to put it. I like it
