Like peeling onions <br />removing the skin <br />layer by layer <br />all the while shedding tears, <br />so is emotional recovery. <br />Day by day; <br />crying, <br />putting the hurt behind, <br />reviling the inner strength, <br />suddenly realizing <br />life is good again. <br />The tears have washed the pain away<br /><br />Milica Franchi De Luri<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/day-by-day-37/
