I stopped keeping count of who hurt me.
Stopped giving them power over my story.
Because when I finally reached that place…
Life was not the same. It began to take a unique shape.
I had to allow the healing to begin, even if it meant
forgetting the faces of the ones who fractured me
I freed myself from a past that had no right to hold me.
A past that tried to stop my growth.
A past that taught me the hardest truth of all ,
No one is coming to save me.
I had to save myself.
So, I went searching.
Deep.
Back to the child I once was.
I found her.
I held her.
I rocked her until we both, at last ,
put our wounds to sleep.
( I did not write this) it’s just touching 💕
