Written for a friend who was experiencing a break up
Why is it that the world/thinks healing can happen overnight/love can be fabricated/people can read a book and heal correctly/this world is hurting/but it doesn’t know how to heal/love is so precious/it isn’t just a four letter word/that’s what makes it beautiful/
Why is it that people think/that they need to shift the blame/because they don’t like the outcome/but when things are going up/they want to take all the credit/but when things start taking a bad turn/they are nowhere to be found/when the sound of silence/sometimes is the best/
Why is it that we think we need to share/to show that we care/and give advice that can be hurtful/not thinking before we listen/because we think we can relate better/silence can be so loud/because the voice telling you you’re wrong/that nobody else hears/is screaming lies into your soul/
Why is it that when people heal/their progress can be measured/but when it comes to love/its more of how you feel/and even if it could be measured/it seems like you never hear of love in steps/like people describe the process of healing/when it isn’t always static/
