You ask me to forget you
You ask me to move on
You ask me to leave the memories behind
And start a new life.

But, love,

How can I forget how to breathe?
How can I move on without my heartbeat?
How can I leave my soul behind and start afresh?
How can I live life with heart half a less?

I have you memorised
Like lyrics of my favourite song
You'll always be in my heart
Just where you belong.
