learning to forget…

I can make you forget “Him”… Those words made me laugh… forget Him? Never!… move on.. maybe.  He told me, He would never forget, He said, W/we should be together, I’ll be here when you’re ready little one… soo she took a chance… she called Him… just to say hi, but as soon as His voice came on the line, her tears started flowing like gentle rain…” Heyyy?? what’s wrong?” He asked, half knowing what she was going to say.

“Nothing really”, she mumbled in a child-like tone. "I’m broken and I need a hug”..  Fifteen minutes later she heard a car in the driveway… wow she thought, that was fast… if only “He” could’ve done that… all would be fine.  At least that’s what she keeps trying to tell herself.

she answered the door with tear-filled eyes and suddenly she was in His arms… “Are you okay babe?" He asked, the concern visible on His tanned face, His blue eyes piercing through her.  “NO no no no, I’m not okay,  I’m broken, I told You before, I just need a hug, I don’t know what the hell… I just wanted to Love Him", He nodded and raised a finger to her lips as He pushed His way into the house… “Well, do I need to kill someone?”,  He asked... she just shook her head in response as He wrapped His arms around her and rocked her gently.  “I't’s okay little one, I’m here now, see I told ya I’d be here if ya needed Me… I’m always here for you, you know I love your silly little ass, no matter what you do, I will always be right here.”

He held her for hours… made her dinner, and made her eat it… a real Man, a real Friend… They sat there on the couch, His arms wrapped tightly around her, wiping away her tears as she cried, and after a few hours she managed to get the words out… “HE PROMISED HE WOULDN’T HURT ME”  that’s when He said it…  “I can make you forget…”  How can she ever forget “Him”… it’s so hard, but she must try.
