A weight has been lifted off my shoulders

When I woke up today, my heart was heavy, as it has been for the past few weeks.

And so I went into the shower.

And for some reason, I started thinking.

And my thoughts went back to the day when it all started...or rather, ended.

And sudden realisation hit me.

And it felt like a weight had been lifted off my shoulders.

At first I was afraid the burden was gone.

Then I realised, my woe was still there.

But I had grown stronger. (:

And I wore the necklace.

Whenever I looked at it before, it felt like some reminder of a traumatic accident, something to be hidden in one corner.

But wearing it today, I feel like its the most precious thing in the world. The most beautiful. And the most fragile.

I will protect it.

And I will love it.

Because, I love you.
