She's tired.

She's tired of the psychological mind games and people pretending to be someone they're not.

She's tired of the shallow conversations with people that only care about themselves.

She's tired of attention from men with hidden agendas.

She's tired of being treated like an option when she should have been treated like a priority from the first conversation.

She's tired of spending countless nights questioning her own self worth.

She's tired of people not respecting her boundaries and forcing her to do things she's not ready to do.

She's at a point in her life where she wants to be loved correctly or be left alone completely.

Dear self,

I'm sorry for putting you in the same difficult spot over and over again.

I know you just want to feel loved and cared for, just like how you love someone else.

But I still make choices that make you hurt and tired.

You deserve better,
You deserve to feel peace,
you deserve to feel happiness.

You deserve kindness, peace, and love, not only from others but from me too.

From now on, I promise to listen to you more, give you the attention you've been waiting for, and to stop letting anything and anyone break your heart.

You've been sick for so long, and now it's time for you to heal.

With my love.
I AM

Treatise Heart

You are not always strong every day, and that's okay. Sometimes you just have to breathe and rest. Take a pause for awhile and be vulnerable. It's okay. Even the strongest person cries when he's tired. I want you to know that you don't have to hide all your fears and sadness just to look strong in front of everyone. It's okay not to be strong. It's okay to admit to yourself that you can't take it anymore. And someday, I hope you'll realize that whether you are strong or not, you are still worthy.

She already knows her value, her worth. She healed in such a way that she fell in love with herself all over again. She knows that nothing was ever easy, but maybe that was the beauty of it. She is unbothered— by people's opinions, dishonesty, fakeness & inconsistency.

She learned to forgive those who have done her wrong in the past, because she knows that they help her build the woman she was today— and that woman is me, and i will never be that girl again.

I want you to know that your past mistakes and traumas doesn't define who you are. You are more than your wounds and scars. You are more than the number of your heartbreaks. And I hope you always remember that I am so proud of you for being brave enough to stay alive. You are loved, and you are always enough.

I'm still learning to say goodbye to the people who hurt me even if they give millions of excuses.
I'm still learning to leave the most things I love if they're causing pain.
I'm still learning to stop giving too many excuses for people who wouldn't.

I'm still learning to love myself enough to stop anyone that would make me suffer.

"Isn't it sad?"

"What?"

"...that she made sure everyone around her is okay but no one even asked her how she's doing."

I want you to know that your past mistakes and traumas doesn't define who you are. You are more than your wounds and scars. You are more than the number of your heartbreaks. And I hope you always remember that I am so proud of you for being brave enough to stay alive. You are loved, and you are always enough. ♥️
