Let The Tears Come

This morning I finally let the tears come. They'd been waiting to be released for some time. I gave them permission today. I thought they would pour out like a heavy rain when I freed them, but instead they took there time. Slowly trickling down my cheeks, but first the large pools that formed in my eyes. I watched as they dropped into my lap. Drops forming a wet patch on me that was getting wetter. Drops growing larger, tears flowing faster, and bringing with it the images.

Images that were soon joined by words aligning themselves together, so that my tears gushed out at the point of their connection. I could now hear myself sobbing, and feel my body shift into fetal position. Strange how that womb like curl emerges. I don't know how long I laid there, for sleep came to me when my tears had ceased. Something else had also begun to ease inside me too. There had been a deep hurt that had been spreading through me that I could not withstand, as I had the images. It pained me as if it were a part of my body. I had been trying to keep going as if nothing had happened. Explaining away every unpleasant sensation as the hurt continued to radiate throughout me. As if it hoped that it would soon have possession of me. But here I was now, all cried out, and beginning to feel the slight movements within me of pain evaporating. Relief was coming. Healing was on its way. I had let the tears come. I had freed them, and they had in turn freed me...
