Okay
Every rotation on your turn-table eye, Or every buzz that the radio hums: "Ah, I see, music sings through you. So no, I know, I won't be okay." The green of the frail willow tree I spy, Or every flash of a sunbeam on the stroll: "Ah, I see, colours shine through you. So no, I know, I won't be okay." Every frequent meal in...

The sun is unchangeable until the moon whispers solace hymns of doubt....

Premium Member It's okay to feel pain sometimes
It's okay to feel pain sometimes, to embrace the shadows that traverse your soul, Pain is not the enemy they're described as, but the silent teacher guiding your steps, A mentor you didn't call upon, but who leaves the deepest lessons, It's okay not to be okay, to allow yourself to be vulnerable in the face of your...

Am I okay?
Should I give up? Trying her best, but it isn't enough. Giving it her all, but it isn't enough. "Is that all?" "Can't you try harder?" "Do more!" All these meaningless opinions effecting me, barging in. When will it go away? Sleepless nights, silently crying. When will someone listen and not judge me? Can't they let me be ? Can't stop my thoughts from being...

It’s Okay, Not To Be Okay
It’s okay to stumble, to break and to fall, To feel like you’re nothing, like nothing at all. The weight on your chest, the ache in your soul — It’s not a reflection of losing control. It’s okay to cry when the pain runs too deep, To shatter in silence when no one can see. Your tears are not weakness, nor...

GIRLCROOSH: INSTRUCTIONS ON FINALLY FEELING OKAY
Try to get out of bed early, try to make your bed. Inhale. Your off-white bedsheets haven’t been washed in a month. Try purchasing a new detergent, one of those that’s petal-scented: 2 in 1 Aroma Boost Spring Daydream Wash. Try smiling in the mirror; especially If you have dimples. They’re the new “it” thing. Inhale. Do yoga....

You Will Be Okay
Do I ever stop feeling scared? Will decisions ever get easier? What happens when I am stuck in a moment and can’t get out, will I start to panic with the thought in my head that it will last forever? Will I ever start to feel safe? Less scared and angry, more happy. Does the weight on my shoulders finally...

Premium Member Hope this was Okay
Warmth in a wigwam on a December afternoon. The sun was going down, but it was cozy and hot inside. my invited dinner guests would be here soon, so, I began organizing things I wanted to eliminate or hide. My early bird friend caught me and helped me out a bit. What are we eating tonight? She asked in her...

I'm okay
I say I’m fine like I’m okay Don’t need to darken their day They don’t need to hear about my intruding pain It’s not like it matters anyways They say you fake it till you make it So I’ll put a smile on my face I’ll pretend to be okay I’ll try not to go insane I’ll try to be okay All the...

Premium Member Okay Two
The women in the kitchen are exceptionally pretty Because they are my relatives, and they love me My mother is wearing a red dress, but it is muted Aunt Sue is dressed in green with a fancier apron The entire house smells like vanilla and cinnamon I salivate the minute I enter the kitchen You may have one cookie before lunch,...

Not Okay?
It’s okay to carry the weight of your fractures - to let the world see where light fights to escape the jagged edges. Let them witness the uneven gleam; perfection is a story that never breathes. They say strength is silence, a face unmoved by the tide, but I’ve found courage in the ragged pull of air, in tears carving rivers through words left unspoken. It’s...

I do not want things to feel akward or tense between us anymore I would like us to just be okay
I find it sad that we are always, always, always getting to our limits, and there's nothing where we... There's never, like... I always try... I mean, I tried, but I don't know why it doesn't add up. I don't know why we both are like... I don't even like it. I don't like it...

i’m not okay
I stress about the times I have failed Agonizing about what I can’t change Melting into mush as solid as my self-worth No, I don’t regret it Overall it was liberating Tonight I might finally get to sleep soundly Obtrusive thoughts won’t cloud my nightmares Knives in my back can finally be removed At least I was happy for a moment You’re proud of...
