It Gets Better

It gets better, life after love
I know it felt like a drug that turned into an addiction, but it gets better

It takes time though
And it doesn't happen over night
And it'll be a challenge

You'll go through these periods of wanting so badly to find closure
And wanting so badly to know if they're doing alright
And wanting so badly to know if they miss you like you miss them, but it gets better

You'll get past the reminiscing about how things were in the beginning and you'll start to realize that things turned Out the way that they did because it wasn't meant to be
You'll blaming yourself for all that happened
You'll stop filling yourself with doubt and disappointment
You'll stop shaming yourself for not being able to love someone you were incompatible with
You'll stop looking at love as if it's tainted
It gets better

What you won't stop doing, though
What you won't stop doing is learning, growing, evolving
You won't look at failed relationships as a waste of time
Because you know you needed to experience them in order to grow

You won't stop loving yourself
You'll be so full of self love that it flows into the souls of everyone around you
Because by then you'll know that in order to love people in a way that is healthiest for them, you have to love Yourself too

It gets better
You'll stop choosing lovers that tear you apart and start picking lovers that align with all that you are
I promise you, it gets better
