White out won't get rid of the boys you once loved or the girls that broke your heart.
Tearing out the pages where you wrote to that one person won't make the words disappear; your veins translated into ink to make the words so. You have these people in your blood.
People come and go but you can't pretend they did not stay for some time. You can't erase their shadows in your photographs. You can't erase their impact on you.
Out of sight out of mind- really? You want to kid yourself into that?
Remembering hurts but someday you may want the old letters and photographs because someday you will move on and be thankful that whiteout couldn't cover where you felt a part of yourself let go.
Retrospect reminds you why specks remain but not the whole person, and why that is okay.
I won't erase you if you don't erase me. I'm sorry for the times I tried, for the times I really did believe
That if we didn't have forever, then we had nothing at all. I read the letters with heart, and I'm so thankful I left them whole.

I understand that people need to leave to move on but people change us for the better and for the worse. You learn either way. I personally believe that when you are ready, let what was just be and take it for what it is worth. Don't erase letters, don't rip photos and don't delete anything. At one point you were in the midst of cohabit sting with someone and no amount of deleting can change that. Find something good about the time you had and hold to that instead.
