Erase Me

You think back and wish you never met him.
You think back and wish you never laid your eyes on her.
You throw away all of the letters, the cards, the love notes.
You donate the stuffed animals and clothes that they bought to the Salvation Army.
You drag those pictures and videos on your computer to the trash bin.
You click the delete button on those emails and those status updates.
You discard that music playlist, the mixtapes they made or gave and even discard songs that remind you of them.
You close that secret webpage account and even take off that tab on your internet browser that links you to their blog.
You unfollow them on twitter and de-friend them on Facebook.
You try to forget their face.
You try to forget their smell.
You try to forget how warm it felt to have their hand in yours.
You try to forget the happy times you folks experienced, the hardships that you both have overcame, and the rewards of just being together brought.
All in all, you try to do what you have to do to forget them.
But no matter what you promise your head, your heart or your soul...
You can not deny their significance to your life.
So you can go ahead and try to live your life like that person never existed but you most definitely can not forget how at one point...
they made you feel loved.
