today i felt off, i felt sad,
so i sat in front of the mirror,
only giving myself five minutes to cry,
i told myself everything i needed to hear,
"you don't need him"
"you are better off without him"
"it's okay to miss the person he was"
"it's okay to still have hope for him
to be a better person"
"you are strong and you never needed him"
"you will find a better place for your heart
when the time is right and you are ready"
when the crying finally stopped,
i smiled because my heart was lighter,
that's when i knew i'd be okay again
