What do you do to cope when you've loved and lost?

30 Aug 2017

I have somewhere around a hundred poems, the bulk of which were the result of heartbreak. Writing for me is a coping mechanism. Putting it under a microscope and through the creative process kind of lets me understand how I'm feeling. Once I overthink it and even exaggerate it I'm able to let it go.

The voices in my head.

Thankfully I have not had to deal with a break up since I was a teen. It hurt and I cried some but I do not remember it lasting very long. This month Hubbie and I celebrated 38 years of marriage. Most of which has been fantastic.

Drink, mostly.

It gets better slowly over time.

Me too, to a degree. Maybe lesser than yours. I have over a hundred poems on here. It's cathartic. My 2 cents

As we lick our wounds. and in time give new hope to anyone new, hoping they are better for us than the last one.
