I was broken –
I healed wrongÂ
Like a bone
Unable to reach my full potential
Incapable of fully extending
Aching for the loss of motion
The knowledge that what was once there
Is
gone
But all along I faught to remain
Pain free
I found a crutch, he was my crutch
That I thought I couldn’t live without.Â
In a constant panic at the idea that I would lose the only thing
I thought keeping me sane,Â
The inane thing
Was that it was what was making my brain
So intensely unhappy.
I didn’t know that i had to experience the painÂ
And let the bone be broken again
In order for it to heal properly!Â
This process enabling me
To be the best possible version of myself
Like pulling teeth I fought the idea of being uncomfortable Â
Refusing to look past it to the gain
And I remained:Â
Stuck.Â
Be willing to experience discomfort.
So that you can experience the joy and satisfaction that the growth will give
That is how I regained my desire to live.
