I Deleted My Files...And You

I Deleted My Files...And You

Dear You,

I cleaned up my files today.

I deleted old docs that I have no use for now.  

I deleted previously downloaded music; music that you used to sing to me and music that my heart used to sing for you. 

I deleted videos with you in it and videos I laboriously created for you.  

I deleted some duplicate photos. And your photos. 

Photos of you and me, photos that reminded me of us. 

Or at least how I was when I was with you.

It is still kind of heavy clicking YES when the prompt question appears: Are you sure you want to delete these photos/videos?  

I’m unsure if I wanted to, but I’m sure I needed to.

When I was done cleaning up the ghosts of the past, I made sure I wouldn’t be tempted to retrieve them. 

So instead of opening the Recycle Bin to check, I just right-clicked it and chose Empty Recycle Bin.

Another prompt question:  

Are you sure you want to permanently delete these items? 

Again, I’m unsure if I wanted to, but I’m sure I needed to. 

It’s about time.

And who would have thought cleaning up computer files could bring heaviness in your heart and tears to your eyes?
