leaving


It's gonna hurt a lot
I'll have trouble sleeping at night
I gotta whole lot of tears to cry
The strain is chopping years off my life.
What will it take for me to let it go,
Separate the heart from what i know,
When loving memories is all I've got.
You know it's gonna hurt a lot.

It's not easy picking up the pieces, but the heart mends, although it doesn't ever feel it will at the time.

your words say it all, when a heart breaks this is the way it really feels, glad to know yours is not broken anymore

Only time really heals I suspect ...or at least it was that way for me.... but the wonderful memories do not leave...the beautiful new ones join the ones from the past in a newly built space
Beautifully done

I've always wondered what that would be like in the life I lead right now.
Grass is always greener until one mows & waters the lawn, right?
