poem from my heart..(Little box)

I have this little box filled with memories of you,

Sometimes i open it and remember the times we shared,

It makes me feel whole, just as much as empty,

Happy just as much as sad,

And loved just as much as lonely.

As i pick up the scattered memories,

I feel as though i am picking up pieces of my heart,

I smell them, feel them, touch them and remember them.

When i put them together,

I feel as though i am constructing a mold of my heart,

Replacing each piece of the frame,

Everytime i open the box the frame gets stronger and less fragile.

It makes me smile to know that at one time i was loved and that i loved,

Many pieces remind me of the pain you gave me,

But with sorrow and grief, comes power and triumph,

And i feel as though i have won.

You may have broken my heart,

But you thought me something,

If you love someone, really really love them,

Love will give you the strength to let them go

PEACE
