she was young, yes.
but she had a heart that was aged beyond her years. one that had always been torn apart, year after year. & a heart that she somehow had torn apart herself..but that same heart had continued to stay intact and grow despite it all.
she hits the snooze button 6 times every morning before finally getting out of bed. some days it’s 7 or 8 times. who really knows anymore. but somehow, some way, she drags herself out of bed.
she gets up, goes to the restroom, gets dressed, kisses her husband goodbye, and heads for the front door.
she walks down the pathway and reaches the her vehicle. she starts her car and exits the driveway. she listens to music but doesn’t sing anymore. she pulls into work and sits in the car for a couple minutes. she doesn’t want to move.
she walks through the doors and goes straight for her desk. she turns on the computer and checks her phone. nothing. she stares out the window in front of her.
she doesn’t want to talk or move. someone comes by and asks how she is doing, and she loses her composure. tears everywhere. they were not expecting this kind of response. she was not expecting that they would care.
she wipes her face and blows her nose. & she says, “I will be just fine.”
on the outside, she seems great, most days.
looking in, you can see the pain in her eyes. but you can also see the determination to finish the fight that goes on inside of her mind.
So…to everyone that is struggling with some type of battle, just know that you are NOT alone and that you can WIN.
Sending lots of love your way.
