I agree with the other comments, it's the perfect metaphor, and it also illustrates what you often go through when you lose a friend or significant other... you sometimes need to get rid of diaries with entries about them, photographs, and old letters, just so you don't stumble over them again later and relive all of the pain, thus, you "burn" it all.
the smoke tends to get stuck in your clothes, though.<p><b><i>Edited by delial on November 29 2007, at 05:09AM</i></b></p>
