Don't compare yourself to others. There's no comparison between the sun and the moon, they both shine when the time is right.


when I find the day

where I am unapologetic for being happy.

when I lie in bed

and know that I am safe.

when I can wear what I want

without people assuming that's an invitation for harassment.

when I can walk with confidence and not feel ashamed for being me.

when I can look at my mother without seeing hate.

when I can communicate more effectively.

when I no longer think of getting out of bed and taking care of myself as a chore.

the days I live for, when I'm not alive to be living and to be living to be alive.
