Unforgettable.

I've been grappling with my words all month.

I've twisted phrases and fired metaphors,
searching for words of comfort and love.
They rolled pleasantly off of the tongue...
but ultimately were empty.

Nothing more than expressions of obligation,
lacking sentiment but carrying hyperbole aplenty.
Broken prose masquerading as poetry...
both verbose and regrettable.

So I'll go with words from a friend more eloquent than I:
"I need you to understand that you are entirely unforgettable."
