It can be hard to find your way
When you watch the sun drown
In a sea of gray.
But it's okay.
The sun will come back another day.

I want to tell you that it's going to be alright.
I want to tell you whatever I have to to get you through the night.
I want to tell you how proud I am that you asked for help as i hold you tight.
No matter how much you scream and cry and shake, I won't give up the fight.
I want to tell you that it's not your fault.
And as we sit by the fire, watching it fill the room with warmth and light, I want to tell you that it's going to be alright

They well up in my eyes.
I blink them away.
Because it doesn't count as crying,
If the tears don't hit the page.

I'm sad and I'm a wreck.
But hey, it's okay.
Because it doesn't count as sadness,
If no one sees my pain.

I try to push you away
But you keep telling me
"That's not happening today"

I'm hoping you'll keep your distance
But all you say is
"There isn't any chance"

I try to hide my feelings, but we both know, I can not. You tell me it's okay
Since I've already fought a lot
This poem is dedicated to my friends that helped me through a lot :)

It's okay to find shapes in the clouds or stand out in the crowd.
It's okay to ask why or if you feel you need to cry.
It's okay to say no.
It's okay if you don't know.
It's okay if your dreams change as you grow.
It's okay if you're wrong.
It's okay if you're right.
It's okay to ask for help
or if you're afraid of the night.
It's okay to sing.
It's okay to love who you love.
It's okay to believe heaven and your god above.
It's okay if you're lonely.
It's okay to admit you're not okay.
But remember. No matter what they say, it's okay

dearest reader,
it is okay
not to be okay
sometimes we need reminders, you are allowed to cry, and scream, and get angry. it is ok to not be ok.

Mum told me a story
Before I went to bed
That I will remember
‘Till my day of death

It’s about a girl
So careful and sweet
Walking towards home
Through some poorly streets

She saw a little girl
Being way too cold
So she gave the little girl
Her big warm coat

Then she saw a boy
That broke her heart
‘Cause he was so cold
She gave him her scarf

She gave away
Her socks and sweats
Until she had only
Her underwear left

Looking at the stars
While softly singing
She heard the 12
o’Clock bells ringing

The stars began falling
Golden stars on her feet
‘Cause this selfless little girl
Was also in need

With these gold stars
She bought new clothes
And gave them away
Like she did before

The stars kept fallin’
Every single day
And ‘till her death
She kept giving away

Now up in the sky
She shines bright
As she falls down
Every night

With her falling comes a purpose
Falling is part of the universe, it’s okay

Calming playful breeze runs it's fingers through my hair
  Salt water gently nips at my ankles
I watch the sunset over the ocean
The mix of colors setting just right over the horizon
Getting lost in the warmth of the moment
Losing myself to the picture
