The night was heavy,
my heart became a cage of stone,
but the whispers of tomorrow said,
“You won’t walk alone.”
Healing isn’t sudden,
nor fast, nor always plain,
but each step forward teaches
how to move past the pain.
The scars remain as stories and victories,
proof of what I’ve braced and overcame,
yet light now warms the journey,
and hope has found its place.
Moving past the pain🖌️
