I wanna be okay

I wanna be okay,

I've been through so much pain

I've been brought up and broken 

Silenced and out spoken

 

I wanna be okay,

My life was flipped over

But now it's getting better

I float up and feel light as a feather 

 

I have no more love songs

No more heartfelt words 

But I'm falling in love again 

And it's better than before

 

I see her every day 

With her long hair and slender frame

I wonder how she sees herself as ugly

I ponder how she thinks she's worthless 

 

Every minute I spend with her I fall more and more

But this isn't a stranger to you

As this isn't someone new

This small, smart, and passionate girl 

Is me 

And I wanna be okay so she can be okay

 

I learned that I can't put all my love into someone, I have to put it into me

I have to love me

And it's easier than I ever imagined 

They were all wrong, I'm easy to love

And I wanna be okay with me

  • Breaking out

    I step out into a cool summer night 

    The air fills my lungs and soothes my anxiety riddled body

    I walk out and feel the calm breeze on my torn up skin, wrapping around me like it's comforting my wounds

  • This is really goodbye

    I've grieved this relationship a million times, a million ways, yet it was always somehow easier because I knew you would come back. I knew how to play my cards so I could be assured that you were hooked as much as I am.
