You matter
I wanted to shake my head
I wanted to say no
But I saw the truth
Felt the disconnect
You wanted me to pretend
So I smiled and nodded
"I'm fine"
Escaped automatically
The shield
Protecting the truth
I wanted to speak my truth
I was
Lost
Scared
Fighting the darkness
Drowning in my mind of negativity
Desolate
Alone
Overwhelmed
Falling apart.
I wanted to feel connected
To believe what I felt
Was important
That it mattered
That I mattered
I decided to leave this space
And go where
I mattered.
