Lately, it's been memories and sleepless nights. My bed, our bed, these sheets still smell like you. I swear I hear your voice echoing through the walls at three in the morning, and I'm awake for another sleepless night. I almost called you, but I convinced myself not to. Sometimes I have to remind myself to breathe. "Just breathe." I have to remind myself that the world isn't over, and that my shoulders have carried far more weight than that of the pain you have caused me. I can heal. I need to remember that yesterday is gone; it no longer exists. I can't keep dwelling on a past that doesn't dwell on me. I can do this.

Kami Kuat: I am Strong
