Can't remember to forget you - poem

I wake up today
with a strong resolution,
I will forget you today,
I had strong determination.

I will have to stop thinking of you,
The way I always used to do,
This had to be done,
Coz you're forever gone.

I started by deleting your snaps,
They might remind of you perhaps.
Then I took your greeting cards,
I planned to throw them though it was hard.

There were numerous things,
About each a saga I could sing,
there were memories smeared over them
For our love was true not a game.

But I have to forget you,
I have to forget you,
I shouted to myself,
loud enough to be heard by elf.

I packed the stuffs in an envelope,
which then became a sack.
I threw it into garbage
And successfully came back.

Yo yes ya,
I did it yeah,
I felt relieved,
Every memento got concealed.

The day was pretty fine,
From that afternoon till nine,
Tired I had to go to sleep,
No today I didn't have to weep.

Coz I was free from the pain and guilt,
Which I always had felt,
And today I was over with it,
Thinking this my eyes lit.

And I got such a relieved sleep,
that I couldn't get up even on alarm's beep
i slept like dead man
under my slow moving fan.

I opened my eyes at two,
And it struck in mind at one go,
what had I done,
And in my mind turbulence just begun.

I ran to the garbage,
to see it was still there,
two dogs were fighting for it,
and I joined the fight for it.

After a big struggle I won,
with a few scratches it was done,
I sighed with relief and elation,
To win my prized possession.

I can't tell how ecstatic I was,
And I finally reached a conclusion,
I can't remember to forget you,
It's just impossible to forget you.
