Erase

by Nadine
(Ypsilanti, MI)

I deleted your messages
And ripped up your letters.
I erased your number
We're no longer together.

I erased your kisses
And took your smile out of my head.
I grabbed all of our memories
And tore them into shreds.

I took back everything
My feelings & all.
I've now convinced myself
That you were only my downfall.

I tore you out of my heart
And your words out of my brain.
I tore out the fake love
That my heart contained.

I'm erasing you permanently
Out of my life.
You no longer belong
You're no longer in sight.
