i hope you're okay

i hope you're okay

A Poem by speakingcolors

why does emotional pain stick with us so long?

why is it so easy to remember what it felt like,

what it feels like now?

it stabs,

giving us a brush burn on its way down to our knees.

it changes who we are.

it is who we are.

sometimes the only words that come out are tears.

but no matter how much hurts,

and no matter how long,

i promise there will be a moment when you'll forget.

 

i hope it's soon.

sleep tight.
