Just Checking
are you sleeping enough!!??
or are you pretending you don’t need it
are you eating properly!!???
or living on coffee and stubbornness!!
are you letting yourself miss what’s gone
or carrying it like it doesn’t weigh anything
i hope you’re not swallowing your grief
to look strong
i hope you’re not shrinking your joy
to look calm
are you still doing that thing
you once said mattered to you
even a little
are you stepping outside some days
feeling the air
remembering you have a body
i hope you’re not waiting
for permission
to begin
i hope you’re not calling survival a personality
i hope you laugh loud sometimes
and when it hurts
i hope you let it hurt
so it doesn’t turn into stone
i just want you here
alive in your own life
not just passing through it.



😭😭😭 this felt like a hug i didnt know i needed
How do you know me?
