Honesty

For a minute I will sit down,
And in this minute I will be honest with you
I choose to forget those who have caused me pain
"Why" you ask

Because it's easier to forget a person
You remove everything that reminds you of them
Extract every person you knew in common
Every picture discarded
All contact information removed

However, true pain is hard to forget
True pain is caused not by a childish act
But pain caused by a feeling of betrayal 
A feeling that cannot be left behind so easily
It is simply easier to forget the person

In the amnesic state they become irrelevant
And in their irrelevance they loss power over your emotions
Once they are irrelevant their actions become irrelevant
As you forget them you forget everything
Then one day you wake up

You no longer know their name
Then you no longer know that you once knew their name
The only thing left is a dull lifeless pain that is a shadow of what they caused
In this you truly forget not just them but their actions
