I am broken
yet I still am whole
I am sad
yet I still find reasons to smile
I am lonely
yet I still find moments of inclusion
I am tired
yet I still find reasons to push through
I am scared
yet I still find reasons to be brave
I have a heart that aches
yet I still find ways to be happy
I have a mind that grows old
yet I still find ways to be young
I have a body that is changing
yet I find ways to stay the same
I am broken
yet I am still whole
What about you?

I like the message of this piece and the theme of resilience even in difficult moments. It's easy to give up when you're broken, sad, lonely, tired, scared, etc but it's so powerful to push through and still be whole, as you wrote. For me, finding reasons to still be happy and feel like myself comes when I'm with my friends or doing other things I love (like writing!). Thank you for sharing this!
❤️I am so glad this meant so much to you, that was my goal in writing this. Thanks for saying this.
