Another Day Closer

What is going on in that messy, but beautiful head of yours?
I just hope that you know you have so many days and years
Ahead of you. Rest your soul and ease your mind. You will
Live to see another morning and a beautiful sunrise. A thrill
That runs through your veins will never diminish and fade
Into the background like a forgotten memory. You weighed
An option to run away, but you have people who care about
You a lot. Just know you have come back from the drought
And you cannot let old insecurities take you back to a place
Where you did not belong. So you can always follow or trace
Every scar where you once tried to take your own life, but
That memory feels like a lifetime ago. You know in your gut
That you are one more day away from being stronger and
Another day removed from being the girl who used to stand
In your shoes. You are one day away from the woman who
You could become. You know her well because she is in you.
