Easily Deleted

Easily deleted.
Erased.
Gone.
Poof.
No one the wiser.
Except me.
Maybe I don't want to be
the magic sketch girl
who will vanish
when you lift the sheet.
Maybe I want my love
to be something more than etch a sketch,
flip her over
shake
and you've got a blank slate,
no trace of the original.
Maybe I wanted you to touch me,
maybe what i wanted
was one bit of assurance
that I could never be
as alone as I feel
right now.
I don't want to be so easily deleted.
Is that so hard to understand?
