Healing

I can’t stand to look at some things.

Can’t handle the memories.

Can’t stand the feelings they bring.

Let it go.

Toss it.

Give it away.

Sell it.

Do whatever it takes.

Maybe even just keep it around to help the healing process.

Don’t be weak.

Don’t hide away.

Pain hurts.

Memories hurt.

Remembering is scary.

Life is so fragile.

I am strong.

Memories bring back the fears.

Makes me feel weak.

Shaking begins.

Feels like death is near.

Pain is healing.

But it’s not always necessary.

Find peace.

Trust the process.

Explore the pain.

Let it go.

Let it be.

You are safe.

It’s been so long now.

More time will pass.

More pain will fade.

Be here, now.

I am okay.
