Still silly

Still silly after all this time.
A few letters…
A hint of perfume…
A key chain…
A few lonely picture…
Some tender words on a computer screen…
I know that these things are from a better time with you.
But for some reason I can not get rid of them.
The letters still sit where I left them, I am unable to throw them away.
A little soap and water would clear your perfume from that drawer.
You handed me that keychain the first day we met, I can’t lose it no matter how I try.
Your pictures still hang on the wall where you put them so I would remember you.
I can’t seem to find the time to take them down.
I could delete your letters from the computer with a single key,
but they don’t take up that much room.
Tomorrow I will erase you from my life…
But I think I said that yesterday.
Guess I am stuck with you for a while.
But there is nothing wrong with that.
It reminds me that there are good people in this world.
And for a little while, I knew what it was like to be loved.
