brave, strong and broken

{poetry : ongoing}

"𝐧𝐨𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐧𝐠'𝐬 𝐞𝐯𝐞𝐫 𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐥𝐥𝐲 𝐪𝐮𝐢𝐞𝐭, 𝐰𝐡𝐞𝐧 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐧𝐞𝐞𝐝 𝐝𝐢𝐬𝐭𝐫𝐚𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐭𝐨 𝐬𝐮𝐫𝐯𝐢𝐯𝐞."

i've been sad for so long that i cannot quiet remember what a good day feels like. i laugh sometimes but always get reminded of my sadness immediately after.

this is a collection of me expressing that sadness so that i have a place to put it, to put down all the grief i've carried in my heart for so long.

i wish that no one relates to this. but if you do, i want you to know that despite being broken, you are strong and brave and no one can take that from you.
