Remember...
Even when you are told to forget...
Your value stays constant, whether you see it or not...
You are not a selfish being for wanting to be treated well
Do not lower your worth or standards to keep anyone
Make them meet you at your level
Self-respect is power...
Understand that each and every one of your feelings are valid
Every single one of them
Even when you are too much...
Or love too hard...
Give the permission to yourself to disconnect from the hate
We should not have to bare every ounce of another beings darkness
We are not the personal graveyard for them to bury their pain in
Abandonment is a cruel form of emotional control
Don't ever apologize for feeling
And when words seem to fail...
Silence always speaks...
And it's a powerful response
You are not a bad person...
But there are some things in life that do break us
And sometimes it makes us do and say things we do not understand
But there comes a choice
When so much attempts to be stolen from us
Safeguard the right for self-preservation
Not all within us needs to be sacrificed at the altar of survival
There still is another breath within your lungs
And a flame lit within your soul
Reach and embrace the glow
Life is existence
In every single second
Remember that.
