it’s okay
by hardCore
it's okay
to not want to
knowing you need to
to not feel beautiful or wanted
it’s okay
to be needy
adult toddler, stumbling
wishing someone would just pick you up
and hold your hand
it’s okay to feel alone
maybe you are
maybe right now, you need to be
you have your permission to be angry
@ him/her/me/us/them
to kick scream and throw things
breaking the silence
shattering your frustrations
it’s okay
to cry
so pour out your eyes
like buckets beneath a leaky ceiling
after a rain storm
and don't worry about who gets wet
it’s okay
go ahead
shun the sun
stare at your incoming calls without answering
or returning them
take a second to catch your breath
even if it takes an hour
or a year
and it’s okay
if people don’t understand
sometimes your soul speaks a different language
and you barely feel as if you understand yourself
it’s okay
to not be forgiving at first
to hold grudges until your arms tire
it’s okay to be wrong
weak
stubborn
a person you don’t like
a failure
it’s okay to be human
which makes it perfectly okay
to not be okay
so be what you can
because no matter what you allow yourself to be
it’s okay
