Once I fell
And I broke my arm
I couldn't feel the love only the fear
All I felt was the pain and the tears
Once I broke my leg
And I was stuck in one place
I felt so numb ,I felt so trapped
And all I could see was the panicked look on my face
Once I broke mind
And I was left to pick up the broken shards
I refused to cry again
I was tired and unsure if you loved me
But I still hoped that you did even though I didn't deserve it
Even though I was a mess and couldn't help breaking things
And then one day I felt my heart break
But instead of all the pain I would've felt had it been the first thing I'd broken
All I could do was smile and be grateful that you broke my down a million times
So that I'd know how to get up when it really mattered
Thank you for teaching me resilience
Thank you for teaching me how to smile when chaos surrounds me
Thank you for making me strong
Thank you for being the staff that disciplines me and the comforting rod
Thank you for all the love
Thank you God 💕
