To realize that you have power over your pain
is one of the most comforting & liberating
things a person can do.

To know that the steps you are taking
are positive even when your heart is breaking
is sometimes the only way to stay sane and safe
in this life

I don't want to feel like **** anymore
so I don't have to...
to find that level of simplicity
in complex tragedies
is the best thought to fall asleep to

And to come to terms with your tears;
To accept that you are human & crying
does not translate weakness in any way
shape or form, will heal the wounds
if you let it...

Such a simple reaction our body
has to discomfort makes all of that
******* we are carrying
100x lighter
Doesn't that make you feel okay?
That your body wants you to be okay

Because you can't make someone love you
But you can sure as Hell love yourself
