I purge my clothes donating and discarding those that I no longer use

I purge my home decluttering and getting rid of all the things I no longer need.  I even purge my body cleansing it of topics.

All this is well and good but I can’t purge my heart.  You are still there even though I know you are not good for me .

I can’t purge my heart of you and at the same time I am afraid to let others in,
