Does writing letters help purge negative emotional feelings after a breakup?

Title:
Catharsis 

(A man writes a letter to put with many others. He writes one each month to try to calm his mind, regarding breakup advice from a psychiatrist)

Thinking about you and the first day we wed

Spiritually 
As I sit here

Under our once favourite tree
Writing to you again through poetry

In the form of a letter I'll save with the many others
So time won't forget us 

I still find myself having a familiar feeling

Where originally 
I couldn't sleep

Kept awake each night with the lone thought which beat like a heavy drum within 

With such zeal

Does she still love me
My Lucy

For love has planted a seed

Then I always used to get a supernatural feeling like I'm being watched by someone who too

Like me has a special touch

A gift of second sight which lets them see too much

For whenever I closed my jaded blue eyes 
I used to feel you there

Waiting like a new Lola Carmichael 

Ready to judge
Behind my open eyelids

Slowly taking 
All in

I sometimes used to hear your low breathing

And when the air turned suddenly colder

And my hair turned a little bit grayer as I got older

I always used to say aloud

May peace be with you
And God carry you

Whenever you need to be to renew and carry in your heart

This thought that our old love which I pray still binds us
And we will never be apart 

Amen

And the sudden being watched sensations used to stop

So hopefully, 
Wherever you are

You will forever feel satisfied, our relationship was so special 

And something so magical 
Still in the twilight hours of living

Survives 
For it's now transcendental 

For although we both once had to wrestle hard like Samson and Goliath with the Devil

Our old love still blooms like a lone red rose 

So sentimental and vibrating with such vigour and bliss

And still follows me wherever my life
Goes

And will stand the test of time 

Like something once painted by the legendary Michaelangelo 

Goodnight and god blessed
My love

For I can feel you're here reading this

Forever yours
Terry
