I Cried!

                I tend to hide the feelings that are most painful to me deep down inside. It’s as if I have a key and they are locked into a dungeon. Well this weekend someone took that key and unlocked the door and the flood gates of emotions ran ramped.  In what was supposed to be a casual conversation with a close friend ended in tears and both of us embracing in a hug. I was allowed to tell them how I felt and also what they meant to me. Now this person knows it’s like hitting the Lotto if you ever see this side of me. It’s not one that I share with everyone, but because of what this person means to me now and what they meant to me years ago I allowed myself to crumble like a deck of cards. I allowed the brick wall around my heart to come crashing down.  Now, the question is where do we go from here? I’m not sure and to be honest I’m not pushing anything, but no matter what this person already knows I will always be in their corner.  We have been through so much together and through it all it brought us much closer. Sometimes you have to let down your walls and allow someone to repair the pieces of your heart that was once damaged.  That person could be an old friend or even a new one, but whoever it is remember in order to allow true healing you need to deal with old issues.
