It told me
you can survive anything
if you're quiet about it.
That healing
looks a lot like pretending-
until it doesn't.
It said
love won't save you
if you keep offering it
as proof
you're worth saving.
And forgiveness?
It's not always holy.
Sometimes it's
just surrender
in a prettier dress.
I asked,
when do I become enough?
The mirror blinked.
And said,
"When you stop asking."
