.easier.
it's the easiest way, isn't it?
to throw everything that reminds me of us away.
to rip them to shreds.
to burn them to crisps.
the easiest way to forget and let go, to move on.
i've tried, really, but all it did to me was for me to fall apart again.
for me to search trashcans for it.
for me to tape them back together.
for me to reach into the flames and retrieve it.
