incinerate

I am trying to forget
every word you ever said
I am trying to delete
your image from my head
I am trying to put something
else there instead
but I don't know what it is

everything you told me
is engraved upon my mind
everything that I've turned into
is what you hoped you'd find
you thought I was some object
that you could throw behind
and maybe I am
maybe that is my fate
but it's your words
I need to incinerate
