STRONG

There is a difference
between being strong
and building walls.

I wish I still missed you
felt your memories
feed strength into my flesh and bones.

Alas, I miss, missing you
I am just stone
my walls stand tall.

Being strong does not mean shutting the memories out. It means learning from the lessons and embracing all the good times that you were blessed with too.

There is no need to block the good in order to forget the bad.

Strength of spirit is not building walls. It’s breaking through them.
