They say life is a blessing.
But I've watched blessings rot before they bloom.35Please respect copyright.PENANAV3sGjgzD86
I've seen mothers sleep through their children's breaking.35Please respect copyright.PENANAvYXBc6XaKq
I've seen girls learn silence before they learn to write.35Please respect copyright.PENANAcpaNOD6B6L
I've seen sisters cry into cracked mirrors, wiping blood off their smiles before school.
So no—
This life isn't kind.35Please respect copyright.PENANAN6nPgB7Z6m
This life doesn't give.35Please respect copyright.PENANAO8VtwmoFhy
This life takes, and takes, and takes...35Please respect copyright.PENANAlkRappfd2D
Until you have nothing left to lose.
And when you finally start to run,35Please respect copyright.PENANAL6adCs9U4U
when you finally learn to breathe outside the wreckage,
the past doesn't let you.
It follows you.35Please respect copyright.PENANA4haT9csAHp
In the smell of your coat.35Please respect copyright.PENANALDlTXUIMVF
In the pause before a song.35Please respect copyright.PENANAoEyA2UyLKQ
In a child's scream that sounds just like the one you buried years ago.
I didn't ask for this life.
But it's the only one I've got.35Please respect copyright.PENANAl3r41gtOa1
So I'll carry it.35Please respect copyright.PENANA6bNzikLQH5
On tired shoulders.35Please respect copyright.PENANALkXWqDoCf5
With shaking hands.
And if it refuses to be grateful for me—35Please respect copyright.PENANACrolS98y0B
I won't beg.
I'll survive it anyway.35Please respect copyright.PENANAbRZt2m7yyb
