she was a warrior
but she did not realise it,
instead she thought she was a failure,
she was not
she thought that being a warrior meant;
you always had to put up a brave front to the world;
this was not the case
being a warrior also means allowing yourself to fall,
allowing yourself to cry,
to feel your emotions,
to breakdown
because we can't have good without bad,
nothing is always perfect,
and some days are better than others
and it is more than okay to merely survive,
because we get up every day and face the demons we left behind;
and that is true bravery
(Final quote, from an unknown source, thought I'd pop a little disclaimer on that :) )
