My mom introduced this trick to me where you write a letter about something, or to someone, and then you burn it to let it go, to release it from you. I remember when you needed release. I hope this trick helped.
lyrics
Is that fire I smell,
Or am I lying to myself
For your sake?
Missing you at my expense
Snap the dead leaves off the plants
And did you cry when you got home?
I tear out my hair
When you text me now;
I hate to hear your voice.
There was once a love letter that you burned
Oh, I was elated when you left her
Felt like I was closer to you than I'd ever been
Of that paper ashes must remain
Of us ashes must remain
Scattered to the wind and on the plains
But after y'all nothing is the same
I'll arise, yet won't arise from loving you
I'll arise, yet won't arise from loving you
