Wite-out

Wite-out

A Poem by Tasha

Everything that I thought you were...
I white it out,
I white it out from my mind,
I laugh to keep from crying

The bold black lies you told
are erased from my memory
with a streak of wite-out

The constant wondering of where I was
was for you to know where to not go
with somebody else...
I use my wite-out..

I wish I had  listen to my friends
Instead I chose to white them out of the equation,
because it was none of their business
I now see that you are the same player
everyone else said you were...

I've got every type of wite-out
to get rid of you...
the regular, pen, and tape...
so begone you scumbag
because I've whitted you out of my life

I wanted to try something different, I used wite-out as a way to "delete" someone out of their life.

That is an interesting idea. The white out makes the slate clean and free for new things. It makes a page writable again so new things can be put on it.

While whiteout can take things away on the surface, the things it cover still exits. Like those people still exists. The rolls they played in a persons life remain in memory. The way they shape a person are there as well.

Yet, it is a decent way of moving on. It takes a person out of the past and into the future so they can make new things. That is a good thing in the moment, but in the long run one has to mend what is underneath.

Again, brilliant. It's got emotion, and the use of metaphor is beautiful.

Interesting. This definitely came out pretty good with metaphoric use of "wite-out". Great write. :)

Great use of props here, the message is also crystal clear despite the fact you can't see through an opaque streak of white substance on the page.

Passionate and angry, and developing tension and angst as you draw close to the conclusion. More power to you!
