i lie awake with the shadows, realizing thoughts of what could've been had you moved on the first time we were separated; and i, completely turned myself away. i have an undo button before me. i struggle much with deciding, to remove one of us from the scene, to undo you or to undo me or maybe, just undo both of us.

There's lots of powerful emotion jammed into this small stanza. Don't push the "undo" button, or it's gonna explode. Very nice poem.
I'm reminded of Peter Sellers' movie, "Being There," when he tries to undo real people bothering him by clicking the TV remote at them to change the channel. Thanks, Jennifer.
