Crying a river doesn't build the bridge
Walking backwards never takes you over the ridge
You can't take a guilt trip if you refuse to pay the fare
You will never be given more than you can bear
Cringing in fear never saved a soul
Building walls exacts its toll
It's okay to open your eyes
Not everyone is selling lies
You are stronger than you giver yourself credit for
You no longer need life support
You don't need to hide anymore
Stop selling yourself short
You are amazing can't you see
This is only the beginning of your story
You are nowhere near the end
So take my hand my friend
Stand up, look around
Stop lying on the ground
Lift your head
This isn't your bed
It is time to pick up the pen
Write your story
You can do it again
Make your history
You are what you want to be
Emotionally
Mentally
Physically
Spiritually
You and you alone decide what is "reality".
