When darkness breaks
and it surely will
when light shines through
when you get still
When deep within you
stirs a feeling
then you will realise
the start of healing
We often try in vain for years
with little result, frustration, tears?
We over analyse and search
we lose our dreams, we stuff our hurts
We think it wrong to ask for help
when inside of us, we feel like hell
we don't wish to become a 'burden'
yet without communication, who knows we're hurting?
Recovery starts small and builds
with every step, we learn, we feel
true change comes swiftly, when we wake up
we realise what we gave up
By doubting things we knew were true
of past versions, the previous 'you'
that somehow, some way, got messed up
who just got lost, but didn't give up
Recovery starts within your heart
in self-love, acceptance, being you who are
of speaking true, in being authentic
in knowing you were always worth it
I do not know you
but I know your pain
I know you're hurting
and I'm here to say
Please, don't give up - there's always hope
people love you, more than you know
its always darkest before the dawn
but the sun comes up, just feel the warmth
Whatever you are going through, know things will get better. People care...if you let them in. Peace.💜

lt's so so important during the harshness of life sometimes, to just try holding onto, being open to and remembering as dark as things can get, the sun will shine through once again one day down the track as it surely will.
