...
Forget about the bad thoughts,
This one is changed,
Memories of her forget me nots,
Can be erased...
...

" Rivers, let's go to the park...! It's a beautiful day." Emily said, Childishly.
Rivers shrugged.
" I guess so... Why not?" He sighed.

" I think you should take it easy today Rivs. Let's sit on the bench." Macy suggested.
...
" Yeah... my head still hurts..."
...
...
Macy and Rivers sat on the park bench.
Emily swung on the playground swings.
" Watch me, Baby! Watch how high I can Gooo!" Emily laughed, Childishly, Swinging playfully.
...
" Rivs... I..." Macy touched River's hand. He jumped, Startled at her actions.
" Whoa... Macy... what..." He stared at her.
Macy gave a desperate look, Her eyes glassy.
" I really need you to... please remember me ..." She sounded on the verge of tears.
Rivers stared at her confused.
" I do remember you."
Macy took out a pocketknife and held up to him.
" You don't remember."
...
" What are you doing Macy?" Rivers asked, more confused and a bit frustrated.
...
" I love you with all of my memories.
And you still can break my heart like I don't exist? You are still in love in Emily and I'll just vanish and you wouldn't remember me at all!!" Macy cried, Holding the pocketknife to Rivers.

He calmly grabbed Macy's wrist, the one holding the knife, looking a bit disappointed in Her.
...
" ... No..I don't want you to remember any of this ... This isn't me... Please don't look at me like that..." Macy cried.

" You're threatening me in a park full of children, in public. Couldn't you at least try to be more inconspicuous?" He asked, a bit irritated, taking the knife away, still holding her wrist.
...
" I just want you to know I love you so much I don't want you to remember any of this..." Macy said desperately, Wrapping her arm around rivers shoulder and holding on to him.
....
Her only purpose in life is to exist alone...
She wants to forget the past but remember the pain from it as it's love to her...
She's unstable, Rivers...
...
" Why are you like this..? Why are you acting like this?" Rivers asked more confused than before. Macy held him tightly, afraid he would disappear like her parents. Afraid she would disappear before he remembered ...
Her existence was meaningless without him. She was nothing at all but a fragment of painful memories.
...
" Just tell me you love me.... Just tell you love me so much... Please... I've never heard anyone say they loved me before they left me... Please say you do." Macy pleaded with tears in her eyes.
...
" I love you, Macy... So much... Please don't act like that again..." He hugged her back, with comfort.
...
" You're hurt that I almost left you like everyone did. I'm sorry for hurting you like that... I won't leave you ever again. I promise." He said soothingly.
Macy just stayed close to him, not saying anything.
He was starting to understand why Macy was so worried. He just didn't get why she threatened him.
" Can I ask why you confessed with pocketknife? I just want to know." He asked, genuinely concerned about her.
...
She finally responds.
" Everyone else left me on their own.
But, if you were leaving me...
I would want you to leave by me...
Because I love you too much for you to leave on your own..." She held him longer.
...
Rivers finally understood what the therapist meant about Macy's unstable emotions.
....
" I won't forget about you. Ever."
...
Please don't forget me,
I beg to die painlessly and rot,
My forgotten body rests,
On a pile of forget-me-nots
...
