if you’re laying in bed
wrapped up in sheets
of miserable thought,
go to sleep
if thumbing through old messages
only causes your heart to ache
and long for something unattainable
erase them
if it hurts to keep
everything you’re feeling
bottled up inside
let it out
if you’re clinging onto someone
that doesn’t treat you like
you’re worth the world
let them go
because sometimes
we choose to believe
that things are only
indistinguishable shades of gray
when in reality,
life is more black and white
than it seems
if you’re unhappy
with the way
you are living your life
change it
