I am enough for myself
I have a really good health
Today and everyday I will be grateful
For every wonderful deep breath
💖
Looking in the mirror and telling yourself that you're enough for yourself. 💖 Try it.

I am starting to arrive
At MYSELF,
Finally tasting
The fruits
Of self care and
Self-help.

That supportive voice
I started to hear
Took years of work
To appear.

Now I am blessed
With warmth in my chest,
It's all I ever needed
And some rest.
Self-care and working on oneself, journaling, meditation, art, reflection. Self-support through toughest times. It all pays off in the end.

Today I'm fresh
Today I am new
I am feeling around in the dark, but it's only my hands
It's only my voice that answers the queries
I knew something was wrong when I looked for your voice before my own
When I wanted your hands in case my clumsy pair failed
I was living my life through you
So, one set of hands and one voice ringing through the dark is the answer
And I answered
I am all I need

I woke up on a black stained beach
In a country I wasn't sure of
The ocean appeared to me
More reckless than ever
With your body in it
Looking back at me

I somehow lost the pain
That was always inevitably connected to love
I found peace within you
And you helped me recreate it
Into faces with
Your unwavering blue eyes
And my uncontrolable lips

I could see the way you took my fear
And slowly replaced it with trust
And I could love again
Like it was always intended

I am slowly *******
Last night I took out my metal
For I could not stand the weight
During years now
Am I washing off smeared make-up from my face
I think it's beginning to show my skin
Sometimes I speak and the echo brings my own voice back to me
It sounds so much calmer than I remembered
My hair has been growing back its color
It tickles on my shoulders

I'm getting there
It's terribly slow and difficult
But I think I'm finding myself

I caught you smiling,
whirlwind in my stomach.
Why are you hiding?
Can't you see, you're all I wanted?

Undress me with your eyes,
let your lips be my disguise.
I want you to be mine,
I know it's not the right time.
Show me your soft side,
there's a guy in you, the one I like.
I know its there, just let go, be bare.

Why are you hiding?
I saw you smiling.
A smile full of hurt, eyes tired of crying.
I wanna be there for you,
you need to see that I care.
Just grant me your trust,
I'll show you; I'm trustworthy.
Give me this one chance
and I'll love you till the end.

I will not try to fix you,
for there's no fixing needed.
You're perfect the way you are, every corner, every piece.
Believe me, boy, I'm going insane.
Love me now or leave me in pain.

I caught you smiling.
Butterflies everywhere.
Why are you hiding?
Can't you see, I care?

— The End —
