Forget Me

Forget me in death
Invisible to you in life
As I take my dying breath
Sever the cord with a knife

As the memory of me fades
I hope you feel no regret
Invisibility comes in shades
Lest you should ever forget

Cast off the pieces of me
Until there is nothing left
Cut out all that's left of me
So that you are not bereft

I came to you innocent
But that purity was lost
A resonating dissonance
At too high a cost

Forget me now
Never look back
The memory of me disavow
As the light in my eyes fade to black

Adieu...
