#WritcoPoemPrompt115

Threw out old boxes,
Regrets and photographs,
Empty pockets and lockets,
Burned love letters with his autograph.
Old t-shirts he left behind I tossed or give away,
A diamond ring or two I mailed,
It was much simpler so no word I'd have to say.
So now how do I shed myself of the biggest gift he gave,
Forget all the memories we shared and put them in a grave.
I know I will shed a lot of tears,
I know my heart and mind will have lots of fears,
Time heals all wounds I know,
So day by day, one at a time aI will move on,
Eventually it will all be a distant memory and I will feel better I'm sure,
But right now I must live it and the pain I must endure. #breakup
#love
