How Easy She Forgets : Relationship Poetry

written by Poet : Paul McCann


 

 

He was all she cared for once ,

 but that was long ago ,

and now she hasn't even the time

to say hello .

 

He's not there now and it seems

she doesn't want to know .

If it wasn't for their children ,

he would never show .

 

 Is it really worth it

 when something just doesn't fit ,

like love songs he used to sing to her ,

before they split  .

 

If only she could remember

all the things he did  .

But how easy she forgets ,

the things she's always  hid  .

 

He just can't understand

the reason he lost his wife .

She told him that

he just didn't fit into her life .

 

She never seen him at all

 as someone who was true .

Isn't it sad how she forgets

 the love they once knew  .

 

He hides his hurt away

 like a bell without a ring ,

and the songs of love mean nothing

anymore to him .

 

Life is all just rock and roll

 and he tries to be strong .

Where did the love go,

does anyone know that old song ?

 

It's better to have loved once

than never to have known ,

Somebody loved you

 but forgot what you had going .

 

The kids don't know

all the things he tries hard to forget  .

Like how much she cared for him ,

back when they had first met .

 

Times change and people can go strange ,

 there's no reason why .

One day he hopes they'll understand

why they said goodbye .
