///// YOU WILL BE MORE THAN OKAY /////
I know you are afraid of being broken;
that there is something wrong with you for feeling like this
you’re afraid that you will never really know what it’s like to be happy;
but you will be more than okay
you’re afraid that you will always be lonely;
the darkness comes around & tries to suffocate you still from time to time
but look how it’s so much better than it used to be;
you are going to be more than okay
the night isn’t quite as dark as it seems;
stars twinkle, stars shine, the moon is your mother watching down over you
night music of crickets; the whole night is there to comfort you;
you will be more than okay
look how much stronger you are now: a year makes such a difference;
& look how strong you are becoming even though you always thought yourself weak
you did the impossible, all along you had it inside of you;
& you are going to be more than okay
the sharks are sleeping in their beds; the night is illuminated by candles;
you do not walk alone; you believe now that you deserve real & lasting happiness
there is nothing for you to fear – you are the captain of your soul, you can do this –
take comfort & know
you are going to be more than okay
