Letting Go

Forgive and forget,keep moving forward and let go of the past.
These are the most cliche' phrases that we hear everyday.
The anger will eat your "stomach" so they will say.
Forget the past and learn from your mistakes.
It's so easy to tell anyone to stop holding on and just live again as if nothing happened.
But was it really that easy.
When you've been stabbed a thousand times in you heart and the wounds are still bleeding, can you forget?
When you've been pushed in a cliff and you're still struggling for your life, can you move on?
If you're valued possession was taken from you and it was being dangled and bragged in front of you, can you let go?
If you're still drowning in your pool of tears, will it be unfair to remember every pain.
Is it too much, to still dwell some on the remaining grief if it's the only way to be connected with a loved one?
If it's the only way, is cherishing a painful memory a justifiable act?
