Forget It All

Not a whole lot to explain here.  It pretty much says it all.
-Mortimer

Let it all out
Just let it go
Let it all out
Just let me know

What went wrong,
Then we can forget it
You keep it so long,
It hides like a hermit

Deep inside, dreams and fear
Make it hard to remember
That I'm always here,
January to December
To take all your nightmares
And make them disappear
To take all of your cares
While I stay near

Forget the haters
Forget the losers
Remember them later,
But for now, forget it all

Give Me a Moment

This poem was inspired by the events of my life this summer.  This message is what I've been trying to come up with since then, and I finally have it.  I hope you enjoy it, because I didn't.  Every minute I spent writing this was filled with bittersweet pain -- not so much because I wrote this in a time of sorrow, but more because of all of the memories it brought back.  Anyway, here's "Give Me a Moment," the latest poem from Mortimer's Murmurs.
-Jacob

Give me a moment,
I'm not sure what to say
Give me a moment
To tell you it's okay

Give me a second,
One more is all I ask
Give me a second,
I haven't finished my task

Give me a minute,
It's not time to part
Give me a minute,
Before we break our hearts

Give me an instant,
The length of a sigh
Give me an instant
To remember tonight

Give me tomorrow,
I'll make you happy
Give me tomorrow,
It's worth it, you'll see

Give me forever,
I won't let you down
Give me forever,
Like you've given me now
