Slowpoke
By xInSaNexBlOoDyxPrInCeSs
Some people can just forget
With a simple snap of their fingers
They can just move on
Like nothing ever happened
But I'm not like that, you see
I'm not a battery-powered thing
I have a heart beating inside me
Which makes me a slowpoke
He isn't like that
He forgot within a week
Within a week he was with her
With a smile, he began anew
Am I the only one like that?
Am I the only slowpoke?
I still haven't forgotten him
Someone else is like that, right?
But when I see the light
In another boy's eyes
Smiling and laughing with me
I feel myself brightening, a little
And I reach out to him
I hold his warm hands
And I press against him close
And I tell him…
Could you please wait for me?
Wait until I'm strong?
Because I can't forget, yet
I'm just a little slowpoke
