Healing

You don’t get to judge me

For the way I am picking up

The broken pieces

That you left

In the first place

[sandmangirl]

Flowers

You bloom like a flower

but not any flower,

you grow to a rose

so pretty at sight

but so hurtful to touch.

Oh, to have your heart broken by someone who wanted you first.

“Get your heart real good broken and you’ll be a poet for the rest of your life.”

— Charlotte Eriksson, He loved me some days. I’m sure he did.

Liar

You tell me I confuse you

when all you do, is hide the truth

I’m trying so hard but you don’t see

how I’m presenting my heart as an open book

but you complain at how you can’t flip the pages.

“You did what you did, I felt what I felt, and it is what it is.”

“letting go of you was painful. I will never forget the way you made me laugh or the way you set my body on fire with the slightest touch. but I also have to remember how you stabbed me and kept pushing the dagger in deeper with no regrets.”

— you loved me once but not again (the art of letting go)

Do not let him

rule over your body

like it exists for his pleasure

You are not a one-way street

to sexual satisfaction

You are a highway

with miles of skin

and roads filled with life

He does not get to choose

what is too prurient

to cover your body

just because he can not hold back

Lust is not an excuse

for misbehaviour.

- M.A.N.

Healing isn’t just moving forward.

There are going to be (a lot of) times where you will take steps back or relaps into old behavioural patterns.

What makes it healing, is getting back on track. Looking forward. Accepting help. Moving on.

Not losing hope and motivation.

You’re gonna get there.
