Tell me how to avoid the places where we used to go, <br />Tell me how to ignore people that we used to know, <br />Tell me how to throw away your shirt, <br />Tell me how to hide the hurt. <br /> <br />Tell me how to sleep and close my eyes, <br />Tell me how to silence dreaming cries, <br />Tell me how to leave the past behind, <br />Tell me how to rid you from my mind. <br /> <br />Tell me how to see you change and age, <br />Tell me how to be there at every stage, <br />Tell me how to make my life complete, <br />Tell me how to smile if we should meet. <br /> <br />Tell me how to forget your little ways, <br />Tell me how to turn off the radio when it plays, <br />Tell me how to stop waiting by the phone, <br />Tell me how to live my life alone. <br /> <br />Tell me how to stop wanting you every day, <br />Tell me how to eat and work and play, <br />Tell me how to simply just get by, <br />Tell me how to stop loving you until I die.<br /><br />Teedy Dawn<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/tell-me-how-to-stop-loving-you/
