I want to stop crying

by Vikki Owens

I want to stop,
with the sobbing and the wretching,
and the pouring over old letters
and old pictures,
stop with the memories and the haunted traces of you,
containers filled with our wedding,
albums filled with our smiles,
torn up pages from diaries and
friends who abandoned me.

I want my heart to stop hurting.

Vikki-I hope writing this helped you. Crying is actually good for you; it rids the body of toxins. I cried when I read this heart-whretching write. Sadly beautiful- straight from the heart to the page. I hope the hurt goes away.
