#itsokaynottobeokay
panting for air, running to nowhere out of breath, still trying to dig what's underneath what's left is longing, a soul seeking, a mind wandering let hearts be hurting after the sorrow and tears laying down walls and fears let the fragile heart break let the shakeable shake no more trails of fake and ache wait 'til the void opens the emptiness awakens beauty in nothing, space for new fillings throwing what's rotting no longer chasing finally, resting and stopping

We are constantly cutting Through negativity Hardship Reality It’s easy when we’re nice and sharp But even the sharpest blade is bound to dull Making life harder to cut through Hardships get harder Negativity gets more negative reality gets real Until eventually we can no longer cut Broken We feel useless But there’s hope When you oil a machine Sharpen a blade It doesn’t make it new again But it makes it much better Much sharper Comparable to when it was new Much like a machine if you take care of yourself you can go much longer Therapy Medicine Make life worth living Sharpen the blade that is your life It’s okay to be dull It’s okay not to be okay

Sharpen the blade
I see you In pain Suffering Dying from the inside out I run to help Hug you Give you assurance Take your pain away However there’s an obstacle Something stopping me Not physical But it holds the defensive power comparable to the Great Wall of China I’m the Persian invaders You’re the Spartans guarding your home But unlike the Persians I bring you no harm I bring the opposite I bring you help Take my ears No thank you No payment required I’ll give you resources I’ll give you help I’ll give you hope The only thing I ask for in return Is that you stay when you no longer need me
