Healing.
It is not pretty.
It is your ruins bearing flowers one day
Only for the next batch to decay
It is the sun. stars and moon in your sky
Only for the clouds to take away their light
It is being able to catch yourself
Only to stumble and fall once more
It is flying, soaring, reaching new heights
Only to find yourself on the floor
But enough with the metaphors.
Healing is a process.
It is hot showers which may last your entire playlist
It is eating healthy even when you don’t feel like it
It is finding strength in one song, which could also bring you to tears
And it is being strong enough to face all your fears
It is being confident enough to break yourself down
So that you put yourself back together, but not on the first attempt.
Healing is not pretty.
Healing is beautiful.
Healing is worth it.
