The Delete Button

You’ve tried to make it work

The friendship
The relationship
Or the marriage
Even though it’s dead
You keep trying to breathe life into it
That’s the problem
You are the only one breathing into it

So…

You keep hoping
Keep praying
Keep reaching out
Keep texting
Keep calling
Trying to be a friend
Like you have always been
The kind of friend you expect in return

But…

You see nothing has changed
No response
No effort made
No apology
Nothing at all
So you start to feel used
Abused
Taken advantage of
Deeply hurt

Then…

You hit the delete button
Deleting the memories
The connection
The hope
The disappointment
The pain
Even though hitting the button hurts
It helps because you are free
