Delete

In the age of deceit, will alternative history repeat
In photos they never meet she just pressed delete
With the love letters clipped and pruned
The love song sung now a little untuned
Living only in the memory of the author’s mind
Hugs and kisses rewind as the world goes blind
In time all loves embrace has been erased
Upon the screen the romance never graced
Faceless with no name burnt in the flame
At loss for words I was never in the game

Wow! This poem is so truthfully scorched earth, John. It sizzles w/potent, unfiltered truth. Unadulterated honesty. Top notch poetry, my friend. A 7 and a fave for sure. Love always, bruh.
