Reminisce

I did something dumb today,
Something I said I’d never do
My mind started to drift away
And I started thinking about you
I don’t know what happened
One though lead to the next
And before you know it
I began to reminisce

Thinking about times
That I shouldn’t be
Feeling came back
Stirring up inside of me
All of those things
I tried to suppress
All came rushing back
Once I started to reminisce

I thought I was well over this
For you, I started to miss
Why the hell did I reminisce
Once again I hunger for your kiss
And all those things that we did
All because I started to reminisce

I try not to think about it
But it’s so hard after I did
I try to occupy my time
But I just can’t seem to focus
Memories in the back of my mind
Hide away so wouldn’t feel like this
Oh God why oh why
Did I have to reminisce?
