Do not despair
Things are rarely as bad as you think they are
In the midst of despair
It can be difficult to see beyond the pain.
To see beyond the anguish that grips you feels like an impossibility. Yet...you will get through it.
Feelings come and go - and you will be strong again
Cry if you must
Feel sorry for yourself if you must
But you will wake up one day and forget that dull ache that held you hostage for so long
You will forget the reasons that prevented you from smiling
That prevented you from truly believing that you deserve to be happy
Things that you once celebrated
you will celebrate again
Cry if you must
Feel sorry for yourself if you must
But you will one day wake up and feel glad you're alive
Time has a way of healing wounds
both visible and invisible
In time - all will be well
