I don’t know why but I still love you so.
No matter what the memories are stuck.
I want to move on, I can’t, this I know.
I think I have the very worst of luck.

My heart is locked and you still hold the key.
Want to move on, get past the memories.
I can’t do this, just set my heart free.
Stop teasing me. Just give me back the keys.

Please stop taunting me with memories.
You know you are teasing me on purpose.
Leave me alone and end this endless tease.
But the fun times together, I do miss.

Maybe this is my fault. Can I let go?
Are these good times my own personal show?

The author's comments:
I wrote this after my boyfriend broke up with me. At first it seemed like he was purposely trying to hurt me with memories of when we were dating. Then I realized he wasn't, I was just seeing like that because I missed him.

&quot;You know you&rsquo;re a writer if your friend tells you a heartbreaking story and your first reaction is &ndash; wow, that would make an incredible plot for a novel. You know you&rsquo;re a smart writer if you manage to keep that reaction to yourself.&quot;
