Smell the fresh air. Breathe in the crisp scent that is brought just after the rain, And know that it is a new beginning. Close your eyes to the wind. Feel the breeze run fingers through your hair and caress your body, And know that you remained pure. Taste the salty tears. Let them be the last ones that fall, but acknowledge their weight, And know that this is a clean slate for you.
You cannot ignore what has happened, and you cannot close your heart to the things it feels, But you can process them, absorb them, and start to break their hold on you. The first step to healing yourself is a leap of faith, So step off the ledge, breathe and just let it go.
