after a full year
i finally deleted
the messages of ours.
it made my fingers ache
pressing delete then cancel
when it asked if i was sure
i wasn't sure at first
what if i could talk to you again?
what if we could start over?
but after succumbing to
the thought of us
never happening again
i knew i was sure.
your name is no longer
on the tip of my tounge
i can no longer remember
your number by heart
and maybe one day i'll forget
what it was like to hold you
for now i'll take it
one step at a time.
