For The Broken II

by Shenaia Lucas

the process of healing does not end when the wounds are no longer visible -it ends when the wounds no longer ache

let’s be honest he’s not worth your time -you are a goddess

ignore him you are not too much you are exactly what you should be -a full glass

do not cry over a man whose masculinity is so fragile that he would not cry over you too -the minimum

watch how he speaks of his exes for that is how he will speak about you -mature men respect their past partners

you are so compassionate trying to heal every broken soul that comes your way always giving and giving but you cannot give away what you do not have yourself -wisdom

do not let him love you unless he is prepared to play with fire -you are the flame

we fell out of love like falling out of a chair in slow motion and then instantly -out

life is too short to love with anything less than everything you are -give me everything

love is love is love is love is love is love is love is love is love is love is love is love is love is love is love -lgbtq

you are not a burden you are not hard to love you are not a liability you are beautiful you are joy you are strong and you are not defined by what they say -defined
