Erase

I would erase you from my memory
And plant you fresh and clean
Your eyes
Your heart
Your mind

The way you touch, the way you look at me
The way you see me now
I would forget you
And find you new
So fresh and calm

That will be beautiful to see
How we belong
How we no longer bleed
How we no longer need to heal
I’ll pick you when
All this gets real

The soil I’ll choose will make it easier
We’ll each have our own place
You’ll grow
But leave room for me
To have some healthy space

I won’t be walking on my tip toes dear
Or feel your discontent
I will forget you
Discover ease
Without the net

That will be beautiful to see
How we belong
How we no longer bleed
How we no longer need to heal
I’ll pick you when
All this gets real
