Before:
Alone
Afraid
Broken.

I had no help
I had no one who understood
No one who could relate
No one who I trusted

Silence is supposed to be quiet
Then why is it so loud?
I hear my heart beat echoing
The buzzing of the fridge
The clicking of the heater
The rain pattering on the roof

Isolation can be relaxing
But to me it's terrifying
The never ending voices
Never ending thoughts

But that's before.....

After:
Loved
Alive
Repaired

I have people by my side now
People who understand
People who care
People who relate
People who help mend those cracks

No the cracks aren't completely gone
No I'm not 100%
But I'm on the trek of being better
Of being healthier
Of being me

The room is full of laughter
Voices of those I love
Tears of happiness
And genuine smiles

I'm not afraid to be alone anymore
The bad memories have been replaced
The bad thoughts have been replaced
The bad habits have been replaced
A new person begins to grow.


I love you my people, you know who you are ❤
