in spite of everything…
my power has been,
in spite of everything, always
finding it in me somewhere
to say to myself… you are worthy.

i finally stopped waiting…
waiting for him to feel sorry, to feel regret,
to feel guilty, to realize how much he had lost
in me and to feel some certain way for all
that he had done to me
i finally understood…
it really never had anything to do with me.
someone who is capable of all
that he had done was just never capable
of feeling anything at all.

never be ashamed
of how deeply and passionately
you loved someone who destroyed you,
because destroying things is just who they are…
but loving things deeply and passionately
is who you are

sometimes the healing
isn’t as complicated as it feels,
it just asks for space, and surrender, and release…
allowing time to turn the pages
and the memories to fade,
just letting all those messes untangle
and what’s gone to fall away

Lost And Found…
first, i got lost
in his eyes, and in his words,
and in his arms holding me…
then i got lost in all the lies he told,
and i was just… lost.
but then i looked myself
in the eyes, and i started to find my voice,
and i learned to hold myself up,
and i began searching for my truth,
and now… i’m finding my way,
and i’m finding myself.

find peace with the
apology that’s never coming…
even if it came,
it wouldn’t be enough,
and it doesn’t hold your healing
