This ones for the recovered.
The healing.
The strongest souls I've ever met.
You always say that you're better now,
That you aren't sad anymore,
But I know that's not true.
Nobody is always happy.
It's okay to be sad every now and then.
You don't need to hide it.
Emotions are normal,
Everyone has them.
Recovery isn't about being happy all the time,
It's about not being sad all the time.
It's about being able to see a purpose within yourself,
Believing in life.
I know you do.
I know you believe.
But you don't have to pretend anymore.
