Healing Is Messy

Healing Is Messy Healing is messy, it’s not linear Sometimes things in your mind are not always clear One day you’re great and everything makes sense The next day you’re drowning and the feelings become too intense Emotional healing isn’t like a physical wound you see Sometimes it just appears when you thought you was free Maybe a trigger , a word, an action ,or circumstance Can 180 your actions and change your stance Healing is messy, it’s not as black and white But you’ve got to have faith that everything will be alright You’ve got to remember why you need to heal Sometimes what we deserve is greater than how we feel You’ve got to accept that the past needs to lie No matter how much that may hurt and make you cry Sometimes the things we hold onto aren’t worth the pain But it takes a while for the heart to catch up to the brain Healing is messy but then again so is life Full of beauty , yet full of strife Healing is messy and it’s okay if right now it doesn't make sense Just remember how far you’ve come from the past to the present tense
