Won't it hurt? To erase it all.
Won't it change who I am beyond repair?
Erasing all bad memories is a nice fantasy.
But we have too many, too many that saved us from more.
A bad memory is a warning to not get in that situation again.
Erasing all experience just brings you back to the start.
To start all over again. Reliving every single one, once more
