I lie broken
unable to move
barely breathing
every part of my body aches
but I sit
then I stand
after a moment
I am walking
I can do what I need to
as time passes
and I realize
without you
I am still me
I am still valuable
I am still deserving
of happiness
and love
You haven't destroyed me
just wounded me
I am learning
to heal
from within

Post a CommentBeautiful. It's hard to believe, but in some way, we've all felt like this. Thanks for sharing.
True. Healing within... seems to be a very long process. But, you will ultimately have "PEACE".
AWESOME, sis!!! See.....you CAN survive, and you have just proven it to yourself, above all. Eventually, you will not only survive, but THRIVE!! I continue to hold you and the kids uplifted in prayer. :-)
