Beautiful Mistakes

by R.J. Avenira

do not be so hard on yourself

life is rife with struggle you cannot blame yourself for needing rest

you have still better days waiting for you

what really matters is that you never believe that you deserve to be treated the way they treat you

do not hesitate to say no to the things and people in your life that infringe on your peace

i was never

your first priority you saw me as an option and i saw you as my only

everything you need is already inside yourself

give your sadness the attention it deserves

there is a difference between forgiving people and giving them

another chance to make the same mistakes they made before
