everyone preaches about the tragedies life has to offer
they go on about how it's okay to feel down and to it's okay to not be okay
but no one talks about how to glue the pieces back together once you've had enough time broken apart
it's not quite about smiling through the pain to convince yourself that you're okay
but rather smile through the pain to remind yourself that you will be okay
smile through the pain to help you heal and become okay
it's hard
it's one of the hardest things to do, in fact
you get into a routine of laying in bed all day
not eating or eating way too much
not sleeping or sleeping way too much
losing contact with your friends or being unable to be alone
it's **** near impossible to turn those habits around
and suddenly you're overwhelmed because there's just so much that you can't control
but take deep breath, put a smile on your face, and say "one day, i will be okay"
