For The Broken

by Shenaia Lucas

they never understand what it’s like to be at rock bottom -even though we’ve all been there

you are not your insecurities you are the strength of the mountains and the wisdom of the rivers

when you have finally healed yourself he will come around again for he is addicted to breaking hearts but remember, darling remember what he is and don't forget what you have learned -do not take him back

losing what matters most to you is the beginning of becoming yourself

you were whole before him and you can be whole after him -he does not complete you

the last step of healing is to forgive not those who hurt you for they are nothing the last step of healing is to forgive yourself.

our country elects politicians who brag about sexual assault and face no consequences

it’s her body it’s her choice end of discussion

Preach.

your brokenness is beautiful not because of the way you are but because of the way you will be when you are finally free -a phoenix in waiting

it’s hard to heal when your mind has moved on but your heart is stuck in the past -the heart is a slow learner

you think you’re at your limits but you are not even close you only see the tip of the iceberg but deep within you are more than you seem you are stronger than you ever could have imagined
