Healing, healing is something we all must do.
if it’s for a sinking heart, or grief, maybe self reflection?
I too, want to heal the inner child that is crying for help and peace.
Sometimes she wish she could have been just a little more quiet.
Because whenever she speak, she feels like she has damaged something or someone.
Tears of laughter, and anger are all the same.
My heart yearns for the touch and warmth of love, and tender care.
A mother saying I’m proud.
Feeling like you’re not alone.
A child sitting in her room crying, wishing she had a friend.
Internal healing,
Is saying it’s okay. It’s okay, to feel a way,
And it’s normal.
It’s okay to be intertwined with your emotions
And never be afraid to say…I’m sorry.
Apologize to yourself. And tell yourself, in that reflection that you are loved.
Because internal healing starts with you.
I love you,
I’m proud,
And I hope farther down the line… we soon will feel healed together.
As one. Intertwined. And safe.
Healing, healing.
