Poetry
Dust
By B.D.
02 June 2006
I love those poems or songs or whatever that conflict  but make so much sense so this was actually my first attempt at creating such a work...

I never wanted to forget you

but I wish I didn't remember

I never wanted a lie

but I wish it wasn't the truth

I never wanted this to live

but I wish it didn't have to die

I never wanted forever

but I wish it wasn't just a moment

I never wanted you to stay

but I wish you didn't leave

I never wanted to get attached

but I wish you did

I never wished to just be dust

to mean that much to somebody

but I wish you didn't mean more to me

like the structure

I liked the alternating structure, it captures the conflict that we all experience perfectly...
