There was a point
where I felt like
the only thing
I had waiting for me
at the end of all my
endeavours was
disappointment.The constant
negative
affirmation that
dehumanized my
own willingness
to keep fighting.I want to stop
feeling used to
expecting the
worst outcomes.If I could only
go back in time
to tell myself
that it's okay to
try again at times
where picking
myself back up
felt impossible.I want to tell
him that
He has yet to
play his
best cards.Sunshine,
you've got
tricks up your
sleeve.
Don't ever forget
that you are
extraordinary.Your blood, sweat
and tears will not
go to waste.Finding who you
are is just
the beginning.Being who you are
comes later on.Loving who you are
starts now.Remind yourself
everyday that you
are capable of crossing
broken bridges.You are in no
need of fixing
no matter how many
times the world has
tried to break you."Stay strong, Sunshine."
You got this.
You always have.
