A fake smile can bring you a long way.
Tears can drop and fall so much.
I know what it's like.
To be forgotten.
Lost.
Afraid.
Unwanted even.
Every story is different.
I am fragile.
Emotional.
But I can only cry so much.
I used to let my past control me.
I let it make me afraid.
Afraid to trust.
Afraid to be close to someone.
Afraid to love.
Even now I'm afraid of being alone.
I can only handle so much.
I was controlled.
Controlled by my past.
I hated it.
I hated myself.
I felt alone.
But things have changed.
I didn't ask for my past.
I didn't ask to be treated the way I was.
But things get better, they always do.
Scars heal.
They may take time but they heal.
Just be patient.
And when you feel alone just know you are not.
There is always someone going through things.
You are never alone.
