As of today

I'll only be in your memory,

a trunk full of remembrances

you’ll want to throwaway

and remove forever

imagining you’ll forget me

 

From today on

I'll just be an empty space in your bed

you cannot embrace

and my scent on your pillow

that you will not forget

 

Starting today

I'll only be

a worn out image in your dreams

that will hush the passion

of the love we had

of which nothing remains

not even one single beat

in your heart

 

As of today...
