A past memory

Your nothing but a memory
from my past is what we use to be
Now the future is here
I can see more clear.

We were never meant to be
You were just a fling for me
as I was for you and always will be
the truth is clear and I can see
that the past is were you belong to me.

In the future I tell what use to be
as my kids sit and listen to how the story
once was when it was me and you
I try to hold back all the long hurtful tears
as I explain everything to them
But they will never understand what we use to be.

Were adults now and have found another
to love and spend time and life with
But it still gets harder to Lie about it
when the truth was In front of us all along
You changed as you got older and forgot all about me
As I had forgotten about you and all that you did to me.

I tried to treat you as only a memory
But you always weasel your way back to me
I hope and pray you will stay away from me
for I have moved on and I'm happy and free.

But the bigger question is are you
even if you can not have me as for I
am with another and that is never gonna change
as for I am Happy and always will be
You may not be with the one your with
and that is your decision not mine
You made up your mind along time ago
And so I moved on like you should of done
But I hope you dont do her like you did me.

So please go be happy
Forget about me as I have you
As for you are in my past as I am in yours
Stay strong and do right as we only have one life
Just leave me in the past.
