The ones that make you doubt yourself
Unlove yourself
Hold yourself in such unworthiness
That many times you can’t even breathe.
Those are the same thoughts that keep you alive
Give you moments of deep breath between the shallow ones
Give you possibility, choice, damn it, yes choice
To step outside your mind
That intense restlessness where you crawl to find emotional safety
And allow yourself the opportunity
To begin again
To love again
To trust again
To choose again
And to honor the process
That brought you out of the darkness and back into the light.
