It Gets Better

I promise, if you got hurt. It hurts at the beginning. You can’t seem to think, it feels like a rainy cloud has been following you around. Your body literally shakes, you bury yourself in a pillow scream and cry so your roommates don’t hear you. You dream of her, you can’t imagine a life without her. You realize she wasn’t even that great. It still hurts, you see her back with ex-boyfriend. It hurts again. You feel ashamed to face the world. You pray that she realizes how much of a catch you were. You pray to see her. Then you realize you never will. And she never deserved you. Someone else better deserves you. You start meditating directing love towards yourself. You stop blaming her, you say that it’s good she found him they deserve to be together. You find out that it’s good to be alone. Your heart starts filling with love and tenderness. You realize that one day you’ll meet someone great too, someone who fights for you. You think about what you have in life, that you’re grateful for. Your friends, family: the ones who call everyday. The ones who text you, ask you to go workout with them. You turn off the sad music, you start focusing on yourself now. You start realizing that you’re filled up with gratitude and happiness. It’s a start- now go out and spread it in the world. Be happy, I promise no one can hurt you if you don’t let them.
