'Deleted You From My Contacts'

Rating: 4.5


I deleted your address from my contacts
Didn’t feel I wanted you there anymore.
You never seem to write me anyways
Like you did once long before.

Your name was just taking up valuable space
That I could now use in a much better way.
So I just highlighted your name and pressed, ” DELETE”
It was the most simplest and rewarding plays.

You may one day decide to write me
But then again you might choose not.
I wonder if I’ll even remember you.
Or if I would have chosen you now, forgot?

Whatever happens from here on out
Doesn’t make much difference now you see
I just deleted you off my list of friends
One fly by night friend, now recycle bins, old history.

Very nice. I like the way you used deleting someone from your contact list in a cell phone to show a symbolic ending to a relationship.
